*These are indefinitelty still available from the FAO in Rome but some may be out of stock.*

EDITED 4/30/04: The original list was the Wholesale Price list. The now edited list (BELOW) is the Individual Coin Price list.

I received an email from a gentleman that had stopped by the Forum here and noticed my interest in a Brazilian FAO minor coin. Here is some of his message:

'I am responsible for the Money and Medals Programme of the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO)...
Should you need any other FAO coins please let me know and I will advise you of the cost of those that we have in stock...
I attach herewith a price list of coins in stock. The prices are for individual coins. Wholesale prices are available depending on the quantity
of each coin ordered...
With regard to your offer to put the price list on the Collectors Universe message board I of course give you permission. I would however ask that you put a link to the FAO home page www.fao.org in your message as well as my Email address Harold.angel@fao.org.
Harold Angel
Financial & Operations Planning & Development Officer GII '

I have his list below in hopes that members here may have enough interest to perhaps get a volume discount if our orders are combined into one.
The list is unchanged and has the same prices as when I originally received it.
If you'd like to order coins from the list, either PM or email me to combine shipping or email Mr. Angel to order them on your own.

    << <i>Forgive my ignorance, but what countries are BCEAO and ECCAimage >>



    ECCA = East Caribbean Currency Authority aka Eastern Caribbean States.

    BCEAO = Banque Centrale des Etats d'Afrique de l'Ouest aka Central Bank of the West African States.

    Very interesting thread an list, Brad! Thanks for posting it for us. I'll check it in the coming days, because I know that part of FAO coins have ships and boats on them and, then I'll PM you the details if it will be possible to include wanted coins with boats into common order.
    I'll write back in a few days .

    Once more thanks! image

    I was sure this list would get some interest. Once again, it is not MY list but I am sponsoring it and ordering from it myself. I hope to get an order together by the end of this week (Friday 2/19) so if anyone wants to be part of a combined order please PM me by then.

    I received the free Brazilian FAO 1995 10c minor from this UN gentleman today.
    It was in a padded 7-1/2"x10" padded mailer with packing tape that has the FAO insignia and name on it. .
    For a .50 value coin it was sent 12 days ago direct from the HQ of the FAO in Rome by Registered Airmail (€4.85). The coin was also in a round plastic holder.
    I'm impressed!
    I will order coins for those (in the U.S./Canada) who have PM'd me in the next day or two. If anyone else wants to add to the list please do so very soon! My finances are limited so if you want to order more than $100 worth (unlike myself) please contact Mr. Angel on your own.

    image I really did want to get a few things off this list (1981 is my birth year and an active year for FAO coins image ) but forgot about it.. looks like I won't be able to for a while as my coin budget is nonexistent image

    Brad, did Mr Angel mention for how long this list will be good? I take it that it's a limited stock, right? If they sell-out that's it?

    Hey that's pretty cool what Dimitri linked to, the album that is! Are there albums for FAO coins like the Dansco/Whitman kinds or was that a custom-type thing?
