Hawaii, Maui.  Three Maui Dollars - 1973 antique silver numbered 166 on the number block, a 1975 in antiqued brass numbered 23 on the block, and a later undated one in golden brass, puffy clouds version.  The 3 tokens had a $9.99 plus $3.90 shipping start, and sold for $93.55 after 11 bids by 9 bidders.

 

 

7/1/21

Michigan, Williamston.  1971 Centennial Half Dollar.  It sold to a single bidder who placed a second, unnecessary, bid for the $10.75 plus $2.00 start.  A seemingly high price for a token I catalog for just $4.00, but this is just its second appearance in the 9 years I have been doing these lists - and there are no others on Ebay right now in any category, even as BIN items, so maybe it is scarcer than I thought it was!

 

7/2/21 

New York, New York City.  Henry Hudson Daalder/Sommer Island Shilling Mule in golden brass.  Sold to a single bidder for the $19.99 plus $3.55 starting bid.

 

 

7/5/21

Colorado, Durango.  1979 (80) Rotary Club 50th Anniversary Dollar.  Start $20.00 plus $3.50.  No bids, and it came back for $15.00 plus $3.50 the next week.  It remained at that price until the 21st, when the listing was ended “because the item is no longer available”.

 

 

7/6/21

Colorado, Lamar.  1986 Centennial Dollar.  A choice uncirculated example that had a $12.00 plus $8.50 (!) start. 

 

 

7/6/21

Oregon, Baker.  1959 State Centennial Half Dollar, no DAM variety.  About Uncirculated.  Start $3.50 plus $3.50 more for shipping.  The current listing ends on September 3 and it remains bidless after 8 weeks.

 

 

7/7/21

Kansas.  1960 Official Centennial Coin for Johnson County.  Start $9.99 with FREE shipping.  There were no bids, so it was made a BIN item at the same price.  It remained on Ebay until August 12 when the listing was ended “because the item is no longer available”.

 

 

7/8/21

Iowa, Pella.  1984 Dutch Dollar.  About Uncirculated.  Start 99¢ plus $2.00 shipping.  After 5 bids by 4 bidders it sold for $2.50.

Maine, Whitefield.  1959 150th Anniversary Half Dollar.  About Uncirculated with some spotting on the reverse.  Start 99¢ plus $4.00 shipping.  This little treasure received just two bids and I won it for $4.25.  Too cheap!

Iowa, State Center.  1972 Rhythm’n Roses Tournament 100 Scents.  Start $4.95 plus $4.00  shipping.  No bids.  Not relisted.

 

 

7/10/21

Alaska, Fairbanks.  1959 Statehood  Dollar.  Slabbed and graded MS-63 by ANACS. A choice coin, unfortunately with some spots on the obverse, which probably accounted for its relatively low grade.  The start was $10.00 plus $4.45 shipping.  No bids at first, but after a month, for the listing ending August 8, it was spotted by a couple bidders who placed a total of four bids and it sold for $12.50

 

 

7/10/21

7/12/21

Hawaii.  1991 Pearl Harbor Dala.  Correct perspective Golden Brass Dala.  Start $20.00 or BIN $40.00 - either way with a very high $8.45 shipping fee.  The next week it came back as only a BIN item at that high $40.00 plus $8.45  shipping price, and it remains available at that cost a full two months later.

 

 

7/12/21

Kansas, Russell.  1961 Kansas Centennial / Russell 90th Anniversary Prairiesta Half Dollar.  About Uncirculated.  Start 99¢ with FREE shipping.  It took a couple more weeks, but on July 23 it sold to a single bidder for the original opening bid.

Maryland, Washington and Frederick County.  1962 Hagerstown 200th Anniversary/ South Mountain Centennial Half Dollar.  About Uncirculated.  Sold for the opening bid of $7.95 with FREE shipping to a bidder who placed a second unnecessary bid.

Colorado, Breckenridge.  1971 Kingdom of Breckenridge ULLR Fest 2 1/2 Kroner.  About Uncirculated.  Unknown Mintage.  Not previously cataloged.  Start $5.00 plus just 75¢ shipping.  I won it cheap as just the second bidder for $8.00.

 

 

7/13/21

New York, Delmar.  1961 50 Years of Volunteer Fire Service Half Dollar.  About Uncirculated with a bit of corrosion on the reverse.  Start $13.00.  Postage $3.49 additional.  It seemed really high to me, but on August 10 it sold to a single bidder for the opening bid.

 

 

7/14/21

Ohio, Middlefield.  1999 Bicentennial Dollar.  Unknown mintage.  Not previously cataloged.  I was the only person to bid on this piece at its $1.99 with FREE shipping start.  Quite scarce, but currently unappreciated.

 

 

7/15/21

Arizona, Prescott. Undated Slippery Gulch counterstamp on a Good For 5¢ / “M” brass token.  I regard this as a Prescott, Arizona token because it is listed under Prescott in Peter Spooner’s Arizona Token Catalog.  The seller noted it was from Cokedale, Colorado and noted a Pritchard catalog number - CO450-5b -which was a 1909 token from the Carbon Club with only one reported with the counterstamp.  I am still sticking with the Prescott attribution especially since the new 2021 edition of Peter Spooner’s Arizona Token that debuted just a week ago still assigns it to Prescott (PRE-788) and assigns it a R-3 rarely rating which means 91 to 125 examples known.  This one was offered for a $8.00 plus 75¢ start - but there were no bids and it was not relisted.  I think Spooner’s estimate of known specimens is too high.

 

 

7/15/21

California.  Undated (Copyright 1974) California Dollar.  Start $10.00 plus $3.49 shipping.  There were 3 bids placed by 2 bidders and it sold for a very high $12.50.

7/15/21

Missouri, Palmyra.  1969 Sesquicentennial Usually With a Good In Trade reverse, but this with a reverse that is blank except for an incuse 150 near the bottom.  Edge marked .999 Silver and numbered 82.  A new variety, priced at $70.00 plus a very high $6.00 shipping.  The price seemed pretty steep to me, but I had not seen this one before…and it was my BIRTHDAY…so I bid and won it at the opening price!

 

 

7/15/21

North Dakota.  1989 Dakota Territorial Dollar in the standard Antiqued brass finish.  Start $12.25 ($16.00 BIN) plus $2.00 shipping.  This one exactly like the South Dakota 1989 Dakota Territorial Dollar but with a portrait of the N.D. Governor John Miller instead of the concurrent South Dakota Governor.  Still available two months later at the $16.00 plus $2.00 Buy It Now price.

 

 

7/16/21

Alaska, Sitka.  1963 Alaska’s Historical Capital Dollar in Sterling Silver.  The seller said it was struck in Sterling Silver, but he did not describe the edge - and from the image you could really not be sure if it was the standard Nickel Silver version or the Sterling issue.  Anyway the start was $20.00 plus $3.49.  The second bidder won it for $20.50 - not bad for the real silver variety, but way too much for the nickel silver.

 

 

7/16/21

California, Fort Bragg.  1963 Paul Bunyan Days Dollar.  About Uncirculated.  Start 99¢ plus $4.00 shipping.  There were 2 bids by 2 bidders and it sold for $1.25.

Iowa, Pella.  1982, 1983, 1984 and 1985 Dutch Dollars. One for each of the 4 consecutive years.  Start $25.00 with FREE shipping.  The following week they came back for a lower price - Start $24.99, still with FREE shipping.  August 6 saw them offered at a $22.99 start, and when no one immediately bid at that price, the lot was ended by the seller “because the item is no longer available”. *** But wait!  I bumped into these same tolens offered by the sam seller today, November 26, and they are now available for $15.00 with FREE shipping - the lot ends tomorrow.  So far no bids, but I will note the result tomorrow.......

 

 

7/18/21

Iowa, Pella.  2014, 2015 and 2016 Dutch Dollars. One for each year.  Start $14.99 with FREE shipping.  Great low-mintage years with mintage of 600 for 2014,  650 for 2015 and a similar number for 2016 that I can’t seem to find right now.  The start was a very reasonable $14.99 for the three pieces, which was lower than the issue price, so I bid and won them as the only bidder.  Whattadeal!

7/22/21

Ohio, Seville.  1966 Sesquicentennial Half Dollar.  About Uncirculated.  Unknown mintage, Catalog Value $8.50.  Start $50.00 plus $7.95 shipping.  The first of these that I have had a chance to report on since starting these lists.  A scarce token, but apparently not worth $50.00 yet because it was listed for 4 weeks more, then lowered to a $25.00 start.  That lasted 4 more weeks until it was lowered to $22.50, with a Best Offer Option.  It is worth $20.00 to me as a duplicate, so I’ll make that offer……Within an hour, the seller accepted my offer.  It cost me the $20.00 plus tax and postage as well, but since this is the first I’ve spotted on Ebay in nearly 10 years, its gotta be fairly scarce.

 

 

7/22/21

South Dakota, Sioux Falls.  1960 (61) Dakota Territory Centennial Half Dollar - Cooperating /circles version.  About Uncirculated (the seller said it was Very Fine).  Start 99¢ plus 56¢ shipping.  After 3 bids by 3 different bidders it sold for $2.25.

7/26/21

Ohio, Newark.  1952 Sesquicentennial Half Dollar.  Uncirculated.  Start just $1.99 but with a $4.15 postal charge.  There were no bids during the initial week so the seller ended the listing unsold.  It came back a few days later as a Buy It Now item for $18.99 plus - if the original $4.15 wasn’t high enough already - an exorbitant $4.90 postage charge.  Still available two months later, but currently available on a 15% off sale - just $16.14.  Come on seller…if nobody wanted it for $1.99, how many people will want it for $18.99, or even at the “bargain” sale price of $16.18 plus postage?  Some sellers are knowledgeable and fair, and others are always ready to take advantage of the uninformed and inexperienced - and then have the gall to gouge them on the postage.  This token will be worth this amount someday, but there are currently more than enough to supply the very limited demands of today’s collectors.

 

 

7/26/21

Oregon, Baker.  1982 Baker County Miner’s Jubilee Good for One Drink at My Place private issue.  I was the only bidder at the $4.95 plus $3.99 starting bid.  An improvement to the About Uncirculated one I bought a while back.

 

 

7/26/21

Tennessee, Harriman.  1965 75th Anniversary Half Dollar.  About Uncirculated, which is typical for this issue.  Unlike the the Newark, Ohio listing above, a truly scarce token.  Start $24.99 plus an outrageous $5.00 postage.  It came back the following week for a $19.98 start plus a much more reasonable $2.50 postage fee.   Still no bids, then it came back for $16.00 plus $2.50.  All  right - now I’ll bid.  If I can pick it up for less than $20.00 all in, I will be happy to add it to my duplicate box.  Unfortunately after just 16 minutes at this new lower start, the seller ended the listing “because there was an error in the listing”.  Hmmm.

 

 

7/27/21

Arizona, Prescott.  1915 Frontier Day Dollar.  Nice About Uncirculated, a few spots of tin pest, otherwise nearly Uncirculated.  Start $2.99 plus $3.50.  After 13 bids by 4 bidders it sold for $27.92.

 

 

7/27/21

7/28/21

Oregon, The Dalles.  1959 Oregon Centennial Half Dollar.  Very slightly circulated and with hundreds of tiny spots on each side - still an attractive piece.  Start $1.99 or $5.95 Buy It Now.  Either way with a $3.00 shipping charge.  Nobody bid, so the next week the seller made it a bid item only with a 99¢ start, but still with the $3.00 shipping fee.  It caught the attention of 2 bidders who each placed two bids, and it sold for $2.27.

 

 

7/28/21

South Dakota, Sioux Falls.  1960 (61) Dakota Territory Centennial Half Dollar.  Cooperating and circles version.  Very slightly circulated.  Sold to a single bidder for the $2.25 plus $1.50 starting bid.

 

 

7/29/21

Colorado, Leadville.  Undated Days of ’79 Blue Cardboard 100 (Dollar} with Image of an Elk.  Unknown mintage.  Not previously listed.  tokencatalog.com lists a similar 50(¢) in white cardboard as well as the same two denominations in rectangular cardboard that are dated 1924 and including a message indicating they were good at local merchants during the Days of ’79 re-enactment, essentially confirming their Municipal Token status.  I was - quite surprisingly - the only bidder and won it for the opening bid of $9.99 with FREE shipping.

 

 

7/29/21

7/29/21

Texas, Corpus Christi.  1947 Buccaneer Days Nickel and Quarter.  The pair was offered for $13.88 plus $3.99 shipping.  The next week it came back at a $12.95 for a couple weeks - then for $11.95 and finally for just $9.95 - which was really too cheap for the pair of these, and when there were no bids, the lot was ended by the seller.

 

 

7/30/21

Nebraska, Schuyler - Colfax County.  1970 Centennial Dollar.  An unattractive About Uncirculated example.  Start $9.99 plus $5.00 shipping.  Listed at this price until August 17 when the seller ended his listing unsold.
