Is it worthwhile listings these coins as a bulk lot?

Some are pretty shoddy looking so do those have any value and the whole lot together.(worth listing)?:|


 


There are 3 Florins, 5 shillings, 4 six pence and 4 three pence,(I put the two shilling one in by mistake).


 


Sorry about the size of the photos but the thumbnails don't show enough detail.

Hi Go Tazz, The australian coins all have silver in them,pre 45 is 92.5 % & post 45 are 50 % silver,so definitely a bit over silver bullion price in them.


 


The British coins are copper nickel & probably not much value,maybe a $1 or $2.

Ok,thanks,:-D


 


So which are British and which are Aus?


 


And is this 1968 2 cent coin still sale able with the verdigris on it?


 


Also how did this $1 coin get through,(it's not even round),:O

Sorry about all the questions but I don't have much of a clue when it comes to coins,(obviously),:^O


 


Only that some are sale able if you check completed listings and that it seems to depend on the coin itself.

Hi gotazz, I would list the florins individually and the rest as one lot.


The 2c will still sell, you might get $5-10 for it.


Don't know if the dollar is an error or something done after release.

1968 and 1969 2 cent coins are rarer than the others.


Most mintages had 40-240 million minted but 68 was 17 mil and 69 was 13 million.


There are also some not released for circulation with less than 200,000 minted. 1986, 87, 90 and 91.

That stuff on the $1 coin is sort of inside the coin and doesn't sit on top because it disappears when you angle the coin and the coin doesn't look damaged in any way,(so have no idea how it could end up being that shape),?:|


 


Now you'll have me busy checking error coins,:^O

Have worked out which are Aus ones,(the ones with Australia on them,the florins and the three pence),:^O


 


Will list them and the others sometime in the future,(after I've checked and scrolled through a "few" completed listings),]:)


 


There are so many different coins,:O

Hi Go Tazz, yes the 68 is the most sort after 2 cent coin,especially the variety that has no SD initials ( the designer of the coin Stewart Devlin initials ) which should be beside the lizard's claw at the bottom of the coin.


 


I can't see the $1 coin well enough to tell what happening with it,it's possibly a proplem with the metals not blend together properly when the planchets were made,can you put up a big pic like your first lot ?

It looks out of shape but there is no damage to it and that darker colour blends into the coin.
