jamesk Valued Member United States 81 Posts	Posted 05/11/2011 11:52 am Isn't that a bit pricey for a copper coin? I not that knowledgeable in foreign coins, so I guess my opinion wouldn't count. But I do like error coins. Report this Post to the Staff
Nevol Formerly nancyc Australia 5385 Posts	Posted 05/11/2011 4:46 pm It might be worth about 1/10th of the asking price, so I doubt there will be any takers. Don't know where the seller would have sourced the claimed $800 CV. Obviously a catalogue I don't subscribe to. 2005 Mob of Roos (MoR) did have the lowest mintage of them at around 5.8 million. Oh, by the way, it's an aluminium/bronze coin. life is a mystery to be lived not a problem to be solved Report this Post to the Staff
the-purple-penny Pillar of the Community Australia 515 Posts	Posted 05/11/2011 6:24 pm These have been (are being?) sold by Max Stern, a dealer in Melbourne. I can tell this by the strange staples and writing on the 2x2. Where that $800 cv comes from I don't know, there is no catalogue. Myself being a dollar and error collector I would estimate this worth about $300-400. Maybe at public auction you'd get more, certainly not on ebay. Report this Post to the Staff
Peter THOMAS Pillar of the Community Australia 2830 Posts	Posted 05/11/2011 9:23 pm yes, that's a nice error, and a low mintage variety, but AU $599.95 "Buy it Now" seems a lot - as Nancy says. and a quote from the seller: " I sell Australian modern coins and PNCs that give you returns between 50 & 100% per annum. These are a better and safer investments than Shares and Properties." - I suppose you could say that that becomes a term of the contract ? Report this Post to the Staff
wesley Valued Member 195 Posts	Posted 05/12/2011 08:54 am The coin error is genuine,the selling tactics by using 4 images are made to confuse the people who don't read the description stating 1 coin for sale,the pics suggest 2 coins These are not the type of coin to be listed on ebay with high price,a real auction better suited Report this Post to the Staff
