Or give them to a young person to get them addicted ... I mean ... interested in the hobby :) My Papal States coin collection: https://diadumenian.com/Papal%20Sta...0States.html Medieval coins collection: https://diadumenian.com/Congressofp...0Europe.html Indian Rupee Collection: https://diadumenian.com/Congressofp...0Rupees.html Minor world Silver: https://diadumenian.com/Congressofp...20coins.html Report this Post to the Staff

drdave Pillar of the Community United States 721 Posts	Posted 09/19/2011 8:11 pm I recognize many of the European coins and have them as well. I always thought of trying to collect a coin from each country in Africa, for example, so I find your African coins interesting. People collect different things, and find worth in different things, so it's hard to answer your questions. I don't think these coins are difficult to acquire, so I believe they aren't worth much, but I'm no expert. I agree that they would be worth more to a young collector, though.

The one in the middle with this symbol on it is from Oman. The two at the bottom with the crossed-swords-and-palm-tree symbol are from Saudi Arabia. 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
mvojnovic Pillar of the Community Serbia (Srbija) 576 Posts	Posted 09/20/2011 04:37 am Almost all of these coins I have in my collection ( except those from Swaziland ). It's hard for me to put value on these coins, I know how much they worth in my country but I think that price should be approximate in UK. These are pretty common circulation coins and in Serbia you can buy them for 10 dinars (10 euro cents, that's more then face value of some coins) or even less than that from coin dealer. On flea market you can find 40-50 coins like these for 100-200 dinars (1-2 euro). On the bright side these coins are good start for world coin collection. PS Sorry about bad English My collection on Numista page: 7500 different coins and counting... https://en.numista.com/echanges/pro...hp?id=129798 Report this Post to the Staff
bobbyhelmet Pillar of the Community United Kingdom 2838 Posts	Posted 09/20/2011 3:49 pm Thanks for the responses guys - Looks like I'll put them back where they were to be forgotten until I get a chance to give them away. Report this Post to the Staff

I know you have been giving a lot of coins out in other areas of the forum so it would be a good place for them to end up. I'm also approaching my 500th post and a lot of other members mark this by giving a few coins away so this is a good start for that Report this Post to the Staff
