The advantages of knowing a good seller in person

.. even if we haven't met in person yet. These two are on their way to Greece soon, before ebayers even had a chance. image

    What can I say, they don't make Chinese pirates like they used to. image

    I hope you like them as much in person!

    Very nice pieces. They remind me of that 1855 halfpenny I used to have.

    Michael, I don't really collect China, but Chinese and Japanese coins are practically the only collecting field where I'm still active, after a recent major refocus that I needed to do. All they need is to have a nice dragon design and be of very high grade. Copper preferrably.

    Not really, but I'll keep it in mind for our next transaction. image

    Hmmm, I thought they had something in common too. All three are keepers because I like them and because such coins don't show up every day. image
