Apocalyptic coin sale! Please read! (Palembang coins)

Palembang coins — not interested? Wait, first see the prices. I’ve sold thousands but still have thousands, and have decided to basically just give them away to my customers.

Palembang sultanate on Sumatra (Dutch East Indies) issued coins until 1821. KM lists only 2 types (really the same), Fine at $20-25. My little book for $4.99 illustrates 18 basic types and 291 varieties, with rarity ratings. It’s now also online at http://www.fsrcoin.com/palembang.html

These coins are very cool, interesting, and actually not common. Before my present hoard, over decades as an active dealer I almost never saw any. A group of 3 of the least rare, VF, realized $213 in CNG’s 10/12 eAuction.

I‘ve kept back the finest of each of over 200 varieties, now listed for sale individually at: http://www.fsrcoin.com/palemb.html

MIXED GROUP LOTS, all with much variety:

A. Crude, weak, call them average AG or so, including occasional scarce or unlisted aberrant ones, 100 coins for $11.95 (several lots available)
