closed Auction - Caribbean pirate chest - huge silver coins + huge bonus!

[stefffana]

Good afternoon, dear TSF members!

I have prepared for this auction a very nice selection of sterling silver coins from Bahamas, Barbados, Trinidad&Tobago, assorted with over 410g random non-silver coins offered as bonus from the same caribbean islands (years 1966-1976) . Mostly all these coins are in exceptional condition, coming from sealed proof sets issued by Franklin Mint. The exception is the set issued by Royal Mint in 1966 (the coins developed toning and light scratches, being loose in the box). 

This selection of caribbean coins is a perfect gift for a son/daughter, grandson/granddaughter as a first silver stack.

I have sealed carefully all the sterling silver coins in self adhesive coin holders. The bonus coins will come loose in a brand new wood box, bought especially for this pirate treasure collection.

The 19 sterling silver coins are totally 685.78g (according Numista) or 692.12g (according my scale), so a melting value today of @£394-£398.

These coins are higher diameters than 1oz silver Maple.

Note: the 1oz silver Maple from pictures is only for comparison purpose, it is not part of this sale.

6 x 5 Dollars Bahamas (1966-1976); https://en.numista.com/catalogue/pieces19545.html.

6 x 2 Dollars Bahamas (1966-1976); https://en.numista.com/catalogue/pieces26304.html.

5 x 10 Dollars Barbados (1973-1975); https://en.numista.com/catalogue/pieces26311.html.

1 x 10 Dollars Trinidad & Tobago (1975); https://en.numista.com/catalogue/pieces26466.html.

1 x 5 Dollars Trinidad & Tobago (1975). https://en.numista.com/catalogue/pieces32979.html.

Even all these coins are selling individually at ridiculous high premiums, I am able to start this auction from @spot price, so the

starting price is £400.

Minimum increments: £4 (1% from melting value).

The auction is starting now and will end on Wednesday, 14.06.23, at 21.00 pm. Any bid at 21.01pm will be invalidated.

Postage cost £10 will be paid by winner, on top of the final price.

The parcel will be sent on Thursday morning, RMSD.

Thank you for looking and happy bidding!🤗

Kindest regards,

Stefan.

 

P.S.: Pictures will follow shortly.😊

Unfortunately not. Everything is already in the advertised pirate box, the exact weight is clearly shown, so can not be separated. I am sorry for this. 🤗
