Like today

And so when the rain falls, sometimes on paper ya don't want the ink ta run. I notice this when people put posters on notices up on outdoor bulletin boards. Inkjet output is always a mess. the ink runs down the paper when it rains.

It won't run on laser output tho
Paper might get damaged and crinkled but at the least the copy will hold up

That must be because laser printers just burn the paper with the lasers.  No ink to run.  Just burned paper.

Nope

That particular piece isn't very valuable apparently.

Altho it's an old coin, suprisingly it's very common and it isn't very rare. 1,000,000 is a low mintage, but way over what could ever be considered 'rare' or 'scarce'. A low mintage of 2,000 or less  more like it to be worth anything of value.

This website says it's only worth $350 USD, less than I paid for it.

https://www.ngccoin.com/price-guide/world/great-britain-1-2-sovereign-km-766-1887-1893-cuid-1173616-duid-1329948

So...best I could do is sell it for near its melt value...or resell it to someone for at best a few more dollars than I paid for it.

So unless gold goes up substantially in value, the coin will probably still be worth just $350 for the forseeable future.

Nice eye candy tho.

That coin isn't worth very much, Herm.

I just indicated that to Oerdin.

Most coins aren't considered rare enough to be valuable and are usually assessed by their gold value. Even 15,000 mintage is still a bit too common to be worth anything.

There's a guy who lives in your province who's known as one of the leading collectors in Canada.


His name is George Manz and he's a dealer as well.

He lives in Saskatchewan

There goes the escort he keeps in the basement.  On a side note, try watching the movie reviews by the critical drinker.  He is funny as hell.
