@THQ thank you! Seeing the archives I'm pretty happy how often the Auctions are, really can't wait the next one, so I could scope some more 'piece of eight'! The only problem is that I live in Bulgaria and receiving coins from USA is pretty rough due duty taxes and fees.

For the sake of interest, how much on average do you pay for shipping + fees? For example, sending from the USA to Russia cost me $15.25. But sometimes the price can go up to $18 or $24. Some refused to ship to Russia or turned on the international shipping function on ebay, and then the price reached $ 46, but even in this case ebay simply wouldn't let me make a purchase. Please note that I do not pay any duties when importing coins into the country (although some claim that the import of old coins is prohibited). I don't understand why ebay created its own delivery and banned purchases from Russia. He also created crazy tariffs. Do they understand that ebay is an international platform or do they live on the border of their state ? I'm angry. |

@Slerk to be honest I do not have memories how much I paid in the past (2012-2015) when I was collecting coins. Right now shipping is around $30-$50, and I have to pay import charges based on the coin values at the checkout because the ebay Global Shipping Programme, but they guarantee that I will not have to pay anything duties when the parcel arrives in Bulgaria, never got anything with Global Shipping Programme yet, so I'm not sure what will happen because Bulgarian customs are kinda weird haha. |

The problem is where I live there are no wrecks, and I have fear of water hahaha. Always wanted to dive and search for treasures, but guess this won't happen  |

Another option is to go find your own shipwreck coin. not many shipwrecks here in Arizona - I 'could' go to Lake Mead or Powell to search the sunken boats that have been coming to light lately, but then the finds wouldn't be all that old. Only back to the 40's or 50's for Mead and mid 70's for Powell. |

Nice specimen. It looks like a shipwreck cob should.
