In 2021 Ebay will not allow coins. Any ideas on other online sites to buy or sell?

I am looking at buying from large coin companies, and would like to know if the average circulation rolls by decade are worth buying. Do they have enough variety to make it worthwhile? Are the wheat cents in decent condition? Thanks.

Nice coin. Is that an H mint mark for the Heaton Mint?

Is the ring around the gold dust also gold, or do you know?

They have done 2 per year for other series, so that makes sense. I hope they make more than 4, like the Birds of Prey series.

I recently found the kraken, a 2-ounce silver bullion Canadian coin. It is the first of Creatures of the North series. Does anyone have any idea how many coins there will be in the series, and how frequently they will be released? RCM often holds back coin titles for future releases, so I doubt the titles are available.

I am well familiar with the terms key and semi-key, but is there an official list of such coins? If I were to believe ebay I could probably find a current year coin being called a key coin. That may be an exaggeration, but it is not that far off.

Ebay fees along with Paypal fees can add up. Paypal charges 30 cents plus a percentage. That 30 cents makes things that go low bring in too little. Also, remember how ebay works, two good bidders are needed to get a good price. Only one will not get pushed to a high value.

Thanks for the input. I am at one of the bad areas for the virus. We are watching other shows in the area, but have no idea if the situation improves will the economy be show ready. There is no down payment for the venue, but it is also our meeting venue so getting the people there upset also could have consequences.

Did you get a nice mixture of older coins, or were they all new from the mint? either works for error search, but a mixture is much better.

My coin club has a show scheduled for the end of May. The big debate now, and it is being done remotely since we cannot meet, is will it be possible, and will anyone attend? The situation will answer the first part. Will people attend a show in May is what I am asking the members here.

Check with the USPS about insurance. I do not believe they cover coins. I would do it with a call, not with the package in hand at a counter where I do not know the other person.

You are right about the Rwanda Wildlife Series. It goes back several years, and has the continent of Africa on half of the reverse. I am familiar with the Nautical Series, which started in 2017. I like the Nautical series, and the Cook Island ship coin. I also like the Isle of Man Viking ship, the Noble.

I have not encountered coins of rhodium, but have seen many plated coins. Unfortunately, this is often not done by a government mint, it is added later by a company. I do not believe many collect coins that were altered, and I have not bought any.

I have noticed foreign mints keep adding to their bullion varieties. Has anyone else concluded this? I presented a talk on 2018 bullion, now that it is complete, to my coin club. My favorites are the old ships, What is your favorite? Landmarks of Britain is my close second.
