CANADA (NEWFOUNDLAND): 50 cents, 1908, VG8.
KM11, .925 silver/.3504 oz. 2007 cat. $3.75 VG.
Off white and decent. Maybe cleaned once, but not harshly so, if it was. One tiny, minor hit on the date.
Krause seems way low on this Newfie stuff. Only 160,000 of these were struck. $3.75.

Goldish toning with some light striations due to impurities in the alloy (sort of like "woodgrain" toning, but subtle).
Sharp details. I was harsh in grading this one, initially. Aside from the lack of much luster, I would change the grade to AU. Nice. $3.50.
FRANCE: 5 centimes, 1910, VF25.
KM842, bronze. 2007 cat. $2.50 F, $9.00 VF.

KM843, bronze. 2007 cat. $2.75 XF, $12.00 UNC.
Chocolate brown and a truly exquisite example of this truly exquisite design.
Only the faintest whisper of any rub at all on the highest point, and if that weren't a bit lighter color, it would go unnoticed and this would be an UNC.
I personally guarantee this one will knock your socks off and you won't believe you got it for eight bucks. $8.00.

The ever-popular "Sower", dubbed "The French Walker" by US collectors for its resemblance to the US Walking Liberty half dollar design.
Light gold peripheral toning, nice luster for the grade, attractive. Steal it for $1.25.
FRANCE (VICHY STATE): 1 franc, 1942, EF40.
KM902.1, aluminum. 2007 cat. $1.50 XF.
Even silvery color with subtle luster. $1.00.

FRANCE: 20 francs, 1950, EF40.
KM917.1 (link says 917.2, but 917.2 is coins with the "B" mintmark- same design), aluminum-bronze. 2007 cat. $1.00 XF.

Medium gold color. $1.00.
FRENCH INDO-CHINA: 20 cents, 1941-S, VF20.
KM23a.2, copper-nickel. 2007 cat. $1.00 VF.
Medium grey-brown toning. If I don't sell this, maybe I'll give it to Don at worldcoingallery.com, because his example in the link is awful.
This one is OK. Struck at the San Francisco Mint, USA. $1.00.
GERMANY (IMPERIAL): 1/2 mark, 1918-D, BU (MS63).
KM17, .900 silver/.0803 oz. 2007 cat. $10.00 UNC.

GERMANY (FEDERAL REPUBLIC- WEST GERMANY): 5 pfennig, 1950-D, UNC (MS63).
KM107, brass-plated steel. 2007 cat. $1.50 XF, $5.00 UNC.
I think these are overvalued in Krause, so take this one for less than XF price.
It has one very subtle, small spot/stain on the obverse but is decent, with luster beneath the toning. $1.00.
GERMANY (FEDERAL REPUBLIC- WEST GERMANY): 10 pfennig, 1950-G, AU50.
KM108, brass-plated steel. 2007 cat. $1.00 XF, $8.00 UNC.

GERMANY (FEDERAL REPUBLIC- WEST GERMANY): 1 mark, 1960-F, VF30.
KM110, copper-nickel. 2007 cat. $2.00 VF, $25.00 XF. (Wow, what a jump!)
I guess you could call this XF, if you wanted. It's close, and they're hard to grade.
Find a sucker who's willing to pay the grossly-inflated $25.00 XF Krause price, haha. Sheesh. $2.00.
GREAT BRITAIN: 1 farthing, 1942, AU58 (RB).
KM843. bronze. 2007 cat. $0.50 XF, $4.50 UNC.

KM810, bronze. 2007 cat. $1.50 VF.
Medium brown. $1.25.

KM845, bronze. 2007 cat. $1.25 XF.

GREAT BRITAIN: 1 penny, 1937, AU53.
KM845, bronze. 2007 cat. $1.25 XF, $7.50 UNC.
Nice even brown. $1.00.

Medium brown. $8.00.
GREAT BRITAIN: 1 penny, 1940, AU55.
KM845, bronze. 2007 cat. $10.00 XF, $40.00 UNC.
Light red-brown with gorgeous semi-iridescent orange target toning on the obverse. The color almost looks too good to be true.
I cannot swear it is 100% original, but it might be. It looks original on the reverse. The obverse peripheral toning makes
this piece really stunning when held at a certain angle to the light. Maybe it was from an old cleaning or maybe it's just natural album toning,
but either way, this coin is really attractive. $12.00.

KM813, .925 silver/.0420 oz. 2007 cat. $1.00 VF, $3.00 XF.
Dark original grey and attractive. Actually I am not sure this is a KM813 (.925 silver) or a KM813a (.500 silver), since 1920 was the
transitional year. I think it's .925, though. Catalog price is the same either way, and either way this coin should be easily worth $1.00.
GREAT BRITAIN: 6 pence, 1910, G4.
KM799, .925 silver/.0895 oz. 2007 cat. $3.00 F.
Light olive-gold toning, well worn but all features and lettering show clearly. Some would probably call this VG.
I would myself, but for the slight weakness on the left side of the wreath. Pleasing for a low grade example. $1.00.
GREAT BRITAIN: 6 pence, 1934, VG8.
KM832, .500 silver/.0455 oz. 2007 cat. $2.00 F.

MALAYSIA: 1 sen, 1967, BU (MS63 RD).
KM1, bronze. 2007 cat. $2.00 UNC, $3.00 BU.
Nice orange-red coin. I think it somewhat overvalued in Krause, though, so it's yours for $1.00.

KM36, bronze. 2007 cat. $5.00 XF, $20.00 UNC.

CANADA (NEWFOUNDLAND): 50 cents, 1908, VG8.
KM11, .925 silver/.3504 oz. 2007 cat. $3.75 VG.
Off white and decent. Maybe cleaned once, but not harshly so, if it was. One tiny, minor hit on the date.
Krause seems way low on this Newfie stuff. Only 160,000 of these were struck. $3.75.
CUBA: 1 centavo, 1920, F12.
KM9.1, copper-nickel. 2007 cat. $1.50 VF.

Goldish toning with some light striations due to impurities in the alloy (sort of like "woodgrain" toning, but subtle).
Sharp details. I was harsh in grading this one, initially. Aside from the lack of much luster, I would change the grade to AU. Nice. $3.50.
FRANCE: 5 centimes, 1910, VF25.
KM842, bronze. 2007 cat. $2.50 F, $9.00 VF.

KM843, bronze. 2007 cat. $2.75 XF, $12.00 UNC.
Chocolate brown and a truly exquisite example of this truly exquisite design.
Only the faintest whisper of any rub at all on the highest point, and if that weren't a bit lighter color, it would go unnoticed and this would be an UNC.
I personally guarantee this one will knock your socks off and you won't believe you got it for eight bucks. $8.00.

KM844.1, .835 silver/.1342 oz. Cat. $1.00 VF, $1.50 XF. (Undervalued, in my opinion.)
The ever-popular "Sower", dubbed "The French Walker" by US collectors for its resemblance to the US Walking Liberty half dollar design.
Light gold peripheral toning, nice luster for the grade, attractive. Steal it for $1.25.
FRANCE (VICHY STATE): 1 franc, 1942, EF40.

FRANCE: 20 francs, 1950, EF40.

FRENCH INDO-CHINA: 20 cents, 1941-S, VF20.
KM23a.2, copper-nickel. 2007 cat. $1.00 VF.
Medium grey-brown toning. If I don't sell this, maybe I'll give it to Don at worldcoingallery.com, because his example in the link is awful.
This one is OK. Struck at the San Francisco Mint, USA. $1.00.

GERMANY (FEDERAL REPUBLIC- WEST GERMANY): 5 pfennig, 1950-D, UNC (MS63).
KM107, brass-plated steel. 2007 cat. $1.50 XF, $5.00 UNC.
I think these are overvalued in Krause, so take this one for less than XF price.
It has one very subtle, small spot/stain on the obverse but is decent, with luster beneath the toning. $1.00.
GERMANY (FEDERAL REPUBLIC- WEST GERMANY): 10 pfennig, 1950-G, AU50.
KM108, brass-plated steel. 2007 cat. $1.00 XF, $8.00 UNC.

GERMANY (FEDERAL REPUBLIC- WEST GERMANY): 1 mark, 1960-F, VF30.
KM110, copper-nickel. 2007 cat. $2.00 VF, $25.00 XF. (Wow, what a jump!)
I guess you could call this XF, if you wanted. It's close, and they're hard to grade.
Find a sucker who's willing to pay the grossly-inflated $25.00 XF Krause price, haha. Sheesh. $2.00.
GREAT BRITAIN: 1 farthing, 1942, AU58 (RB).
KM843. bronze. 2007 cat. $0.50 XF, $4.50 UNC.

Medium brown. $1.25.

GREAT BRITAIN: 1 penny, 1937, AU53.
KM845, bronze. 2007 cat. $1.25 XF, $7.50 UNC.
Nice even brown. $1.00.

Medium brown. $8.00.
GREAT BRITAIN: 1 penny, 1940, AU55.
KM845, bronze. 2007 cat. $10.00 XF, $40.00 UNC.
Light red-brown with gorgeous semi-iridescent orange target toning on the obverse. The color almost looks too good to be true.
I cannot swear it is 100% original, but it might be. It looks original on the reverse. The obverse peripheral toning makes
this piece really stunning when held at a certain angle to the light. Maybe it was from an old cleaning or maybe it's just natural album toning,
but either way, this coin is really attractive. $12.00.
GREAT BRITAIN: 1 penny, 1948, AU58.
KM845, bronze. 2007 cat. $7.50 UNC.

KM813, .925 silver/.0420 oz. 2007 cat. $1.00 VF, $3.00 XF.
Dark original grey and attractive. Actually I am not sure this is a KM813 (.925 silver) or a KM813a (.500 silver), since 1920 was the
transitional year. I think it's .925, though. Catalog price is the same either way, and either way this coin should be easily worth $1.00.
GREAT BRITAIN: 6 pence, 1910, G4.
KM799, .925 silver/.0895 oz. 2007 cat. $3.00 F.
Light olive-gold toning, well worn but all features and lettering show clearly. Some would probably call this VG.
I would myself, but for the slight weakness on the left side of the wreath. Pleasing for a low grade example. $1.00.
GREAT BRITAIN: 6 pence, 1934, VG8.
KM832, .500 silver/.0455 oz. 2007 cat. $2.00 F.

MALAYSIA: 1 sen, 1967, BU (MS63 RD).
KM1, bronze. 2007 cat. $2.00 UNC, $3.00 BU.
Nice orange-red coin. I think it somewhat overvalued in Krause, though, so it's yours for $1.00.
