Up until 2012 I had a pretty complete collection but I’m missing pretty much all of 2016-2018’s £2s and I‘m still yet to come across a single new lettered 10p in ordinary change. I think it’ll become unsustainable though I’ve given up trying to get the commemorative coins every year now because it’s impossible unless you own a shop or pub and handle tons of change or unless you spend £100s buying the coins every year. They even talk about this in the annual reports of the Mint. If you look at the number of limited edition coins since 2009 you can see there’s a massive jump in the number minted. It’s important to remember that the Royal Mint has been a government owned company since 2009 and they’re in it to make a profit they’ve done this by increasing the number of designs of coins, reducing the number of coins minted and selling uncirculated coins in packs on their website (which very rarely hold their value). When you compare that to the state quarters programme in the US (population is ~4.5x bigger than the U.K.) the mintages were 400 Million per coin, so ~100x more coins per capita. Activity that doesnt follow eBay policy could result in a range of actions including for example: administratively ending or cancelling listings, hiding or. There are some which have lower montages which are hard to get your hands on the new 10ps with letters on only had 100k of each coin which is pretty low. Listings for current, exchangeable, ungraded currency from any country worldwide cannot exceed 1,000 in value, whether in a single listing or in a combination of multiple listings. In particular selling circulated 50ps which are damaged for £2-4 you’ll often notice that they don’t sell. I can tell you that lots of people have jumped onto selling on eBay in the last few years and try to sell coins for values that they aren’t worth. Sorry I forgot to mention this in my post: there are loads that sell for barely anything.ġ sells for £60k and another for £1.00! I don't get it I know that some coins have minting errors but I have chosen examples that don't.ĭoes anyone know what is going on here? Did the sellers just get lucky? Or would the buyer pullout last minute as a trick? Fortunately, eBay allows you to choose which areas you are willing to ship to.Here are some examples of seemingly normal coins that have sold for a lot of money: Note that international shipping charges can be a big problem if you choose free or flat rate shipping.Try using a book like the Standard Catalog of World Coins to get an idea of what you have. If you don’t know what coin you have, start by checking the date, mint mark, and other noticeable details. Look for an insured registered mail option for more valuable coins. You can’t accurately list a coin for sale unless you know what it is.
