closed Huge discount on Numi collection with bullion/semi numi thrown in at discount: special disposal

[LongJohnSilver]

I've now Split into three batches 

1) 3x pandas ; 4 x horses; covid panda : ruthenium finished panda; ms70 panda: canadian coin thrown in. Thats 10 oz bullion ( some collectible) . Plus i add the blue marble sphere for a total of £425    SOLD

2) clovis set plus titanic coin £450

3) art of glass plus colloseum plus royal winnipeg ballet in music box £475

 

Note: will take GBP 825 for batches 2 and 3 together or make me an offer

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

This is an unusual sale for a specific reason.  Please bear with me.

I have been diagnosed with incurable cancer and am under palliative treatment but need to dispose of my remaining coins before I go as I don't want to leave to kids/wife to sort out and i'll sell on here so I know they'll goto people who appreciate them.

Its not a sympathy sale (my family are well taken care of), I'm just not well enough to sell items separately (I get very very tired and dont need the fuss),

Hence as long as someone offers to buy the lot I will consider selling at what is hefty discount in order to help me dispose.  It just business so no comments or sympathy please (I understand the need to convey sympathy but its not necessary, It's a bummer but I've come to terms with it and had a cracking life and who knows, maybe a get a good while longer if the treatment keeps me going)

I appreciate by selling as job lot people will be buying stuff they don't want as well as  stuff they do, hence the discount (you'll be doing me a favour, honestly)

As an act of good faith, if you are a member of this site  (pre- today only) I will send the coins before you need to make payment. I cant say fairer than that

Just to set your mind at rest, I repeat I dont need the money, Im well insured and pensioned but once they stop treatment I'd probably use the money for one last almighty piss up with my mates and son as I hope I'll have a brief window where I feel better not under treatment

 

I have listed the various items and included my estimate of what I paid, my estimate of minimum value, and my estimate of max value.

I re-iterate I will entertain any offers so dont fee you are insulting me or taking advantage. I will add pictures to edit or reply as I cant get them from my phone to this PC for some reason.

(my costs are estimates as most were purchased some time ago)

 

Item one: Full set of Clovis to Republic: Monnaie de Paris designed by Christian Lacroix from 2014

Set includes 15 x 0.9 x 22g coins, certificates of authenticity, all boxes, and includes presentation box:  Cost (approx) GBP 500, min value GBP 400, Max GBP 600

Item two : Blue Marble 3oz silver coin with cert and box :(Barbados) 2022  Cost (approx) GBP 160, min value GBP 100, Max GBP GBP 160

Item Three: Colosseum : two 28.28g coins, Myer Mint Niue 2014 (citius / fortius) includes snazzy box and coa : Cost (approx) GBP 150, min value GBP 125, Max value GBP 200

Item Four: 2012 Titanic coin with coal from Titanic : CIT mint (bit toned); Cost (approx ) GBP 100, Min value GBP 75, Max value GBP 100

Item Five: Royal Winnipeg Ballet colorised coin in Music box (not yet activated) with Coa: Cost (approx) GBP 100, Min value GBP 50, Max value GBP 100

Item Six:  Art of Glass (2 coins): Congo, Pink Lady 2015, Bohemia Glass 2016. With display frames, boxes and Coa's : Cost  (approx) GBP 250, Min value GBP 350, Max value GBP 700: (First coin company has them for sale at USD1,200 in total currently)  

 

Bullion / semi bullion

4 x 2014 Royal Mint Lunar Horses only ok condition so am pricing pretty much as bullion : Cost (approx) GBP 80; Min value GBP 100, Max value GBP 125

3 capsuled Silver Pandas (1990, 1993, 1997) : Cost (approx 100; min value GBP 100, Max value GBP 200)

Silver panda with Black  Ruthenium/ gold finish 2014 : cost (approx) GBP 50; Min value GBP 50; Max value GBP 100

First Strike PGCS MS70 Silver panda (toned) : Cost (approx) GBP40; Min value GBP 25; Max value GBP 40)

Special Edition 2020 Panda celebrating (believe it or not) the defeat of Coronavirus issued in march 2020 I think before we even locked down, limited to 100 pieces!!! with box/coa : cost (approx) GBP50; Min value GBP 50; Max value GBP 100

There is also a Canada Aster and bumble bee capsuled colorised coin which Im valuing at zero because I cant find a 2013 version of this coin so not sure if its genuine. If it is it could be worth north of GBP 100

 

Forgive me if my chemo brain has calculated incorrectly but I get the following totals

 

Cost (approx )   GBP 1,530

Min value GBP 1,375

Max Value GBP 2,325

I think I've been reasonable and will accept Min value est GBP 1,375.  I think this still represents a huge discount  as even my max value is lower than I can see some pricing (the glass coins alone are for sale at over a grand for the pair)

Only selling as job lot , Im literally too tired to sell in parts. Boxing, posting , messaging etc.  The bumble bee is on the photo with the pandas and lunars.  Ive not seen a 2013 version of this anywhere which is what Ive got

Some folks can afford more than others, so we could say £10 for a raffle ticket basically. Buy as many as you want and each obviously increases chances of winning. Might be easier to hit the target with fewer members? Just a thought.

Hope I manage to keep the same dignity. Wishing you all the best.

I like that 👍🏻

Hope admin can facilitate this for a fellow member 👍🏻

[Leonmarsh]

60 members at 25 quid makes sense round it to £1,500 quid 

Buy as many of tickets as you want for £25 quid

If doing a draw, get a fair price for this gent.. then divide out a manageable amount for people to support and buy a ticket/ number. 
I’ll commit, once all above board 👍🏽

I wish you the very best and glad you are surrounded by loved ones sir@LongJohnSilver

[SlowFrog]

Same, once it's been cemented with the admins, I'm happy to commit to buying a ticket / number.

[LongJohnSilver]

Thanks for the suggestion guys. Id be happy to go along. One caveat tbough, i wont take above £1375 because that was my original price. If it gets above that then happy for any surplus to go to winner
