bagend Posted March 18, 2011 Report Share Posted March 18, 2011 I love the 5lb lots! My wife doesn't . For people who have not purchased large lots on Ebay previously, be careful and check out a few pages of seller feedback. Read the feedback because often collectors will leave positive feedback and describe the contents of the lot, which is often unflattering. You may see, mostly modern steel etc. Many of these lots are junky with a high proportion of the same coins. Just be careful. There is a site that provides the base metal value of lots of foreign coins if you are interested. http://www.currencydebasement.com This 5lb bag here looks superior, and unusual in my experience. Good luck to the rest of you! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
