I have a full canvas bag of $200 of 1963 nickels. I need $450 plus $25 to ship.

    I think a Priority Mail flat rate box has a maximum weight allowance of 70 pounds.

    I've shipped a mint bag of cents in a priority mail large flat rate box for about $20. Max weight is 70 lbs.

    35 pounds per bag for the cents.

    I already have a couple items listed there. I didn't want to hog it.

    That's pretty cool. What are you looking to get out of them?

    While that’s a nice thought, this isn’t the forum for buying and selling. Perhaps you could add this offering to one of your others on the B,S,T or try at a later date.

    If everybody on the BST posted stuff for sale here, too, so as not to hog it, there'd be two BSTs.

    Just sayin'. :)

    Correct. And 2 bags just make it.

    How were these bags stored? Hopefully, not in a damp basement or an attic.

    These are part of a large estate I recently purchased. From what I've seen in the rest of it, and there was a LOT, the coins are mostly pristine. The proof set and mint set packaging all are very good and look at the 1955-D cent rolls I have on the BST.

    Are you going to be selling more?

  • MarkKelleyMarkKelley Posts: 2,015 ✭✭✭✭✭

    Yes. But I don't want to monopolize the BST.

    Surprisingly, those mint canvas bags go for a pretty penny sometimes.
