MTC's on Ebay July 2020

 

 

 

7/1/20

Kansas, Brookville.  1970 Centennial Half Dollar.  Probably Uncirculated, but spotty and bag marked.  Start $12.95 with FREE shipping.  There were no bids, so the seller made the token a Buy It Now item at the same cost.  Still available two months later.

 

 

7/1/20

Nebraska, Verdigre.  1962 Diamond Jubilee Half Dollar.  About Uncirculated.  Start 99¢ plus $3.99 shipping.  The second bidder took this one home for $1.85.

 

 

7/1/20

South Dakota.  1986 South Dakota Souvenir Dollar.  The seller called it About Uncirculated, but it sure looked like a choice Uncirculated example to me.  Sold for the opening bid of 99¢ plus $1.00 to the single bidder.  A bargain!

 

 

7/2/20

Hawaii.  1991 Total Solar Eclipse Dala.  Gold plated Fine Silver.  The variety with the two different reverses from the pair of regular issues.  Mintage just 50 pieces.  Catalog value $35.00.  The seller had 4 available, and now he is down to 2 left.  The $42.00 with FREE shipping BIN price is really good, but I have held off because the example imaged looks a little scuffed.  Also I wondered if he really had 4 of the double reverse variety - or if some of them are the regular versions with an obverse and a reverse.  These are much more easily obtainable because the  mintage for the regular gold plated examples is 500 pieces.  I think I will order one and see - specially since I have $21.62 in Ebay Bucks due me, I will end up putting out less than the silver value!  ….. will report back here with updates.  The token arrived and it was the scarcer double reverse variety - numbered 0037 on the edge.  It was Uncirculated, but there are dark spots developing beneath the gold plated surface - a condition that affects most of the gold plated Vern Lowe issues.  It was nice enough that I ordered the final remaining example - I guess those 7 watchers just waited too long!

 

 

7/2/20

Montana, Baker.  2000 State Champion Spartan Team $5.00.  Boxed set of 3 in copper, brass and white metal.  Not previously listed. Unknown mintage.  Offered for $24.99 plus $8.95 shipping, Buy It Now.  Still available after nearly  3 months.

7/3/20

Hawaii, Honolulu.  1973 Hawaii Dollar. Short spikes.  Start 99¢ plus $3.99 shipping.  There bids by as many bidders pushed the sale price up to $4.05.

 

 

7/3/20

7/4/20

Arizona, Lake Havasu City.  1973 London Bridge Dollar.  Start 99¢ plus $2.50 shipping.  After 4 bids by 4 different bidders it sold for $2.75, in spite of (or maybe because of) being described as being from “London Bridge, Nevada”.

7/5/20

Hawaii, Honolulu.  1973 Hawaii Dollar in Silver, no spikes, medium wave.  Some unattractive spotting on the obverse from being stored on one of those snap-lock plastic coin cases with a corrosive foam backing.  Start $9.95 plus $3.49 shipping.  Sold to a single bidder for that price.  I did not bid because of the spotting, and did not notice it was a variety I did'nt have until I began typing it up right now.  Rats!  Now those spots do not seem quite so bad.

 

 

7/5/20

Iowa, Lewis.  Undated (1954) Centennial Nickel.  Very Fine.  Start 99¢ plus $2.99 shipping.  After 4 bids by 4 different bidders it sold for $13.00.

7/5/20

Oregon.  1959 Uniface Obverse as Used on Numerous Oregon Centennial Municipal Tokens and So-Called Dollars.  This one in nickel-silver, with smoke, and holed at top.  Extremely Fine condition, with some moderate scratches on the reverse.  Start $20.00 plus $4.50 shipping.  There were 4 bids by an unknown number of bidders (because the bidder’s identities were “protected”), and it sold for $56.00.

 

 

7/5/20

Oregon, Eugene.  1960 Emerald Empire Round-Up Half Dollar.  Start $28.00 with FREE shipping.   There was no action at this level so for the listing ending August 3 the starting bid was lowered to $24.88.  It stayed at that price until August 25 when the listing was ended unsold.

 

 

7/6/20

Alaska, Fairbanks.  1959 Statehood Dollar.  A low-end About Uncirculated example grossly overgraded as MS-63 by NGC.  Start $11.99 plus $4.75 shipping.  No bids this week, and when nobody bid the following week the seller ended his listing unsold.  AU-50 would have been a generous grade, but MS-63 really makes me wonder!  Never trust the grades assigned by  the “professional” grading services.  Strangely, coins are overgraded many, many times more often than they are undergraded.  Look at the coin - or token or medal - and decide for yourself.  It you can see wear, it should not be called Mint State.

 

 

7/6/20

Nebraska, Verdigre.  1962 Diamond Jubilee Half Dollar.  Start 99¢ plus $3.99 shipping.  There were 5 bids by 3 bidders and it sold for a very reasonable $3.08.  The same seller had another one that ended 2 days later.  That one brought $5.05 (plus $3.99) after 6 bids by 3 bidders.

 

 

7/6/20

Oregon, Ashland.  1981 Oregon Shakespearean Festival $2.00.  Start $9.00 with FREE shipping.  No bids this week, and when no one bid the following week, the seller ended his listing unsold.

7/7/20

Pennsylvania, Biglerville.  1967 SesquiCentennial  $1.00 on a new $25.00 Savings Account Token.  Sold to a single bidder for the $10.00 plus $3.50 starting bid.

 

 

7/7/20

(West Virginia, Bluefield). 1983 Pocahontas Coalfield Centennial $3.00.  Start $3.99 plus $3.74.  Apparently the same one that was offered for a dollar less in May.  This time it sold to a single bidder for the opening price.

 

 

7/8/20

California, Auburn.  1966 Gold Rush Days Anniversary Souvenir Coin.  BU. Start $2.00 plus 99¢ postage.  Sold to a single bidder who placed a second bid that was not needed.  Since this one had sold, Ebay suggested another one, in a spotty About Uncirculated condition, from a different seller that could be had for $14.99 plus $2.75 Buy It Now. That one is still available, now on a 20% off sale, for $11.99.

 

 

7/8/20

Illinois, Elmwood Park.  1964 Golden Jubilee Dollar in Gold.  Mintage 10, and this one numbered 10.  Not previously cataloged.  The first week it was on ebay nobody bid, and I did not notice it until a few minutes after it ended, and the seller unfortunately did not immediately relist it.  I wrote to the seller and because I didn’t have this one and he relisted it, I suspect just as a courtesy to me.  On its second go-round I was the only bidder and won it for the opening bid of $665.00, which was almost exactly the melt value of this .885 oz. 10K municipal.  I was very pleased, but a little embarrassed as well, because right after I bought it,  gold started moving upward, and quickly gained over $200 an ounce in value!  If I had not asked, he probably would have kept it, and realized the increased value himself.  But considering the volatile nature of precious metals right now, it would not surprise me in the least to see gold values fall again - perhaps to even lower than they were when this coin was sold…but who knows?  I will say it is a refreshing change, because what usually seems to happen for me is whenever I buy a gold municipal, gold values immediately decline.  I’ll have to say I like this result a lot better!

 

 

7/8/20

Minnesota, Virginia.  1958 Minnesota Centennial Iron Nickel.  Sold to a single bidder for the $2.75 plus $3.50 opening bid.

 

 

7/9/20

Hawaii.  1986 King Kalakaua Akahi Dala Signed THM.  One ounce proof silver, in capsule.  Start  $19.95 plus $3.95 shipping.  There were 9 bids by 8 different bidders and it sold for a very reasonable $34.88.

 

 

7/9/20

Kansas.  1961 Official Centennial Coin Stamped Marshall County.  The counties were not previously listed individually.  Marshall is a mid-range County, in terms of scarcity.  The start was $9.98 plus $3.96 shipping.  The first bidder bid $11.23, and a second bidder bid more, winning it for the next increment, $11.73.

Ohio, Norwalk (Firelands).  1959 Sesquicentennial Half Dollar.  Choice Uncirculated.  Start $5.00 plus $1.00 shipping.  Still available 8 weeks later, but now with a Best Offer option.  I decided to offer $4.00 for this very nice example.  I will note the seller’s response here.  Nope - the seller countered with $4.50.  It is a nice example, but I’ll leave it for one of you guys.

 

 

7/11/20

Pennsylvania, Reading (Exeter Township).  1967 Anniversary Half Dollar.  Start $19.99 with FREE shipping.  Two months later it is still available at the same price as a BIN item - currently on a 10% off sale, so you can take it home for $17.99.

Washington, Walla Walla.  1960 Frontier Days 1 Buck and 20 Buck Tokens in a Hard Plastic Case.  Neither of these turn up very often, and the $20 one is especially scarce.  I was the only bidder at the $14.99 plus $4.94 starting bid.  More goodies for the duplicate box!

 

 

7/12/20

Kansas.  1961 Centennial Coin Private Issue for A. J. Bevins, Very Fine condition, but holed.  One of the scarcer private issues - which I have not seen holed before.  Despite the low 99¢ plus $3.49 start, the first bidder placed a $20.01 bid, and the second bidder placed a bid higher than that, winning the item for 50¢ more - $20.51.

7/16/20

South Dakota, Sioux Falls.  1961 (1960) Dakota Territory Centennial Half Dollar.  Cooperating/dots variety.  The seller called it “Very Fine +”, but it looked like a strong About Uncirculated to me.  Sold to a single bidder for the 99¢ plus 56¢ opening bid.  A scarcer variety of this very common type.

7/18/20

Montana, Wolf Point.  1975 Montie Montana / Assinaboine Sioux Trade Dollar.  Sold to a single bidder for the $4.95 plus $8.00! shipping fee.  The seller (in Canada) noted that the $8.00 shipping cost was the economy shipping without tracking, but that you could pay an additional fee for the tracking service.

7/19/20

Illinois, Shawneetown.  1960 Sesquicentennial Half Dollar in Sterling Silver.  I was the only bidder and won it for its $20.00 plus $4.20 start.  The same seller has another one of these set to close on September 20.  It has a higher $32.00 plus $4.20 start.  You can read about that one in the September listing. 

 

 

7/19/20

Nebraska, Chadron.  1960 Diamond Jubilee Half Dollar in “Silver”.  Actually a silver plated version (Mintage 1,000) and not the much scarcer real silver version (mintage 25).

Hawaii, Maui.  1959 Statehood Dollars, a pair of the two major obverse varieties (Oahu and Ohau) in a single NGC slab, both graded MS-64.  Billed as "ONLY KNOWN CERTIFIED Hawaii $1  Statehood Tokens".  The same set from last year, available again. Still with the $489.95 plus $9.31 starting bid.  Once again - no bids.  You can still easily buy the two tokens for $5.00 or less each - I don’t think the holder is worth $479.95!

Wyoming, Cheyenne.  “1890” Buffalo Dollar struck in golden brass.  Harshly cleaned, with some green-black residue remaining - especially between the grooves on the reeded edge.  Described in the title as “1890 (?)”, the seller further explained in the description, “Whether the date on this piece is accurate or not is unknown to the seller”.  Actually issued in the 1990’s, not the 1890’s, this scarce commemorative had a 99¢ plus $4.95 start, attracted 13 bids from 7 bidders, and sold for $58.00.

Montana, West Yellowstone.  1982 Federation of Fly Fishers Dollar.  Start $9.95 with FREE shipping.  There were no bids for many weeks, so for the listing ending September 29, the start was lowered to $8.95.  Maybe that will do the trick.
