Advice on selling a couple tokens.

max42565 · March 23, 2011 11:46AM

I have a couple of condor tokens, one is an "end of pain" the other is, "J Lackington Booksellers". They grade 63-RB & 64-BN, graded ATS. They were left to me, I would like to sell them as this is not my area of interest. I took them to my local coin shop but he really had no idea,any suggestions? I tried to upload pics but it said my file was over 50 kb and would not do it any suggestions.

2 things you will be told.

A.) Turn on your PM function in the customize section (look top right).

B.) Throw them in the BST US Coins Forum, preferably with pics.

Plenty of tokens collectors here.

I'll start the bidding at $100 on the "end of pain"

Contact Broadstruck or ThePennyLady (Charmy).

Edited to add: Nevermind, Broadstruck will contact you!

The D&H numbers on the NGC slab inserts would help if your unable to post pics.

The Middlesex Spence End Of Pain conder tokens are always very popular.

The BST is a fine venue but your main need is to establish value.

Once you know what your looking for there's also a few dealers on these boards that you could consign them too via memo.

ColonialCoinUnion · March 23, 2011 12:10PM

We'd be interested in the End of Pain.

ThePennyLady · March 23, 2011 12:21PM

The End of Pain Conder tokens are very popular and sought after. As mentioned, post some photos on the BST and I'm sure you'll have no problem selling them. I have quite a few Conder tokens in my personal collection all posted on my website: Charmy's Conder Tokens. I may be able to help you with the value if I knew what the D&H numbers are and saw photos.

chaze215 · March 23, 2011 12:22PM

Throw me into the mix with interest in the End Of Pain token.

chaze215 · March 23, 2011 12:26PM

Charmy: I really like that D&H 31 1/2P

Broadstruck · March 23, 2011 12:31PM

Both tokens have different die varieties so knowing the D&H numbers is the start.

max42565 · March 23, 2011 12:48PM

I have been trying for a half hour to post pictures, I have a digital camera and the usb cable, I just cant figure it out DUHH!!! I will have to get my son to do it tomorrow, I got to get with the 21st century. Anyway it is a D&H-831. That is on the ngc holder. The lackington is D&H-358.

coinsarefun · March 23, 2011 12:58PM

I may as well stand in line for the Pain Conder

Count me in as interested

mrearlygold · March 23, 2011 1:01PM

Ok, I'm interested too!

Plus I'm originally from NJ

ThePennyLady · March 23, 2011 1:05PM

Here's my D&H 831.

What is the grade on the D&H 831?

Broadstruck · March 23, 2011 1:20PM

<< What is the grade on the D&H 831? >>

As per the OP NGC MS63RB

max42565 · March 23, 2011 1:21PM

the end of pain token seems pretty popular, It is cool as can be. I need money to buy a 96-S dime in au, when I can FIND one. That and the 95-O is all I need to finish my set,I see more 95-Os for sale. In three years of searching I have seen one 96-S in au for sale and I missed it by 10 minutes.

The End Of Pain should get you the funds needed for a AU 96-S... But not a AU 95-O!

The Lackington Booksellers I've seen at high $300 level ask in MS65RB and is not as popular as the other.

I feel in MS64BN is would most likely be a $200 or less token and you'd have to find a buyer that likes the design.

coinsarefun · March 24, 2011 8:13AM

So....inquiry minds want to know...............did the "Pain" Conder sell

If so............who bought it?

No not yet I cant get a picture to upload and put it on the bst,it said my file is over 50 kb all it is is two pictures I dont know what the problem is.

llafoe · March 24, 2011 10:20AM

Open the photos in Paint, then resize the image so it's under 50k.

simple fix...

Photobucket.com!

voila!

by the way, you could probably also consign them to someone (such as CRO if they do that) if they are some highly coveted examples.

ColonialCoinUnion · March 24, 2011 10:41AM

Max -

I got your PM, and responded, but since your PM function is not activated, I do not know if you received mine.

max42565 · March 26, 2011 9:34AM

I must have a beat computer, I cant post pictures here,or on the BST it just tells me that I cant post over 50 kb. I have listed it on e-bay,as it was only slighty diffucult for me to put it up there,and I hope it will get alot of exposure. I have some other stuff I am going to list but seriously,it took me about one hour to list one item,between arguing with my son and taking about 60-80 pictures with what I thougt was a good camera. I work less on my full time job. For those that messaged me and it did not go thru, I apolagise,I thought it was turned on. Someone please tell me how to turn the pm function on. If this is spam or whatever, once I get better with my computer skills,it will not happen. Thanks for all the help, and check it out on e-bay if you are interestded. Thanks,Max M.

I think I did a good job of describing it, anyone want to hire me?

You should try and link the eBay auction, but given your difficulty with posting the pictures here, I can only wish you luck.

If I only knew how, silly as it sounds this is like trying to reach light speed for me!

Or at least post your ebay username. Either works for us cyber-sleuths.

EBay was obviously NOT the route for selling as this was a giveaway... This token was worth 3 times what it sold for.

Staircoins · April 5, 2011 6:24AM

<< EBay was obviously NOT the route for selling as this was a giveaway... This token was worth 3 times what it sold for. >>

So, you got a good deal on it then?

yellowkid · April 5, 2011 6:45AM

I wish I had seen that, it did go cheap, but Conders seem too on eBay. The BST would have been a better route.

Broadstruck · April 5, 2011 8:20AM

<< So, you got a good deal on it then?

I missed it as I thought it was to end late tonight.

TexasNationals · April 5, 2011 9:28AM

Ah, the exact reason why I quite collecting EOP tokens, was getting them for reasonable money now, got me 6-7 now 1 more in the hopper and will snipe here and there.

chaze215 · April 5, 2011 9:41AM

<< EBay was obviously NOT the route for selling as this was a giveaway... This token was worth 3 times what it sold for. >>

U think $1400-1500 for it?

Tex...you were the winner?

Better photos and adding the proper spelling of conder to the title line might have given a better result. If they don't see it they can't bid on it.

Broadstruck · April 6, 2011 7:56AM

<< Better photos and adding the proper spelling of conder to the title line might have given a better result. If they don't see it they can't bid on it. >>

Being listed under the right category might have helped too as this is not a US Colonial issue.
