Hi Gang:
I put up 5 lots of Gallery Mint Pieces on eBay. No Reserve, starting at 1c per lot (4 of the 5 listings have multiple coins).
Sounds great! But after 1 day, none of the lots have even one bid (that’s right – no one wants to cough up even one cent for these, even though I offer free USPS Priority Mail shipping!).
The reason is: these coins have to be listed in the “Fantasy Coins” section of Exonumia, so as not to violate eBay’s policy on fake coins. Ridiculous of course, since these fully comply with US laws, but whatever. So I’m guessing no one even looks in that section.
I’m not going to cancel the auctions because I believe in the free market. But that also means you might get 11 Gallery Mint pieces worth hundreds of dollars for as little as 5 cents, including delivery. (I hope not, but that’s the risk).
Here are the links to the auctions:

Good luck to all!
