Marc New Member Ireland 34 Posts	Posted 07/07/2006 6:17 pm Hi folks I've been selling one or two commemorative 10 shilling Padraig Pearse coins over on ebay. Thing is, I've noticed the people bidding on them all have bought up a couple of these same coins over their last transactions. Do they know something that I dont? will the price be appreciating some time soon for some reason? Or do people collect many exmaples of the same coin for some reason? thanks Marc Report this Post to the Staff

josie Valued Member Ireland 498 Posts	Posted 07/08/2006 10:22 am i do not know either what is the reason but the 1966 coin is for the 1916 uprising here in ireland they just celebrate the 90 year anniverssary 10 years more it will be 100 I also purchase one last month try to buy earlier it cost so I just take more time maybe the rise of precious metal is silver included also depends on condition and I'm poor in grading Report this Post to the Staff

"Collectors" rarely buy more than one of an item they collect, though there are plenty of exceptions. Sounds like it might be "investors" buying up silver, or "resellers" who've found someplace where people will pay as premium for them. It could even be "speculators", hoping to corner the market by the time the 100th anniversary comes around. Don't say "infinitely" when you mean "very"; otherwise, you'll have no word left when you want to talk about something really infinite. - C. S. Lewis Report this Post to the Staff

Banjax Valued Member Ireland 112 Posts	Posted 01/04/2007 3:27 pm josie is correct. i myself have one of these padraig pearse 10 shilling coins, mine is the upsidedown writing, I think, I must check it. there is approz 750,000 of these coins in circulation I think. i know a place near me where I can buy a proof one of them for Eur35 ($40), but iv seen sale prices for this coin go double that or even more on ebay!!

josie Valued Member Ireland 498 Posts	Posted 01/07/2007 4:34 pm A dealer is selling 55euro proof in orignal blue box,Im not yet in to proof. The last time I saw a 10s they are selling it 20euro. At 25 is a good deal to me and try if you can have a discount till 20 euro. Report this Post to the Staff
