You may wish to take the pictures again with more light, or another camera! People are much more likely to bid if they can see the coin properly. :)

Yeah i noticed the pics are very crappy, will take some new ones in the morning.

Hard to photograph shiny things the light just reflects straight back.

You might get a better reaction if you did not charge £2.50 for postage. Some people wont even bid if they think they are being screwed for postage.

have you seen what theyre going for on ebay!!!!:eek:


undated 20p coin, Decimal Coinage c.1971-Now items at low prices on eBay.co.uk

Re: undated 20p on ebay (mine)
 
I'd have kept hold of it for a while. It'd be a shame if yours only sold for a low price because of your bad pictures as well, just because you were too impatient to wait.

Re: undated 20p on ebay (mine)
 
If I was in charge of the mint I would produce 1,000,000 of them to make all the undated ones worth 20p again :D:D:D

Re: undated 20p on ebay (mine)
 
just got me hands one one of these and did a bit of research
what did yours eventually go for?

it is the london mint company that is offering the £50 NOT the royal mint the london mint company is a consortium of coin collectors seking to cap the selling price of these coins and get their hands on as many as they can to sell at an inflated price to collectors

originally the offer was only open to the first 10000 people who sold their coins to the consortium very shortly afterwards the added another 15000 opportunities to sell up
proof that given time these coins will be worth a mint themselves


anyone willing to part with ooooooh lets say start the bidding at a cool million send me a pm and maybe we can do business lol

Ive seen a few ordinary one get sold for a little more than what they are worth. Might start randomly listing the coins that I get, might make a couple of quid :D

Re: undated 20p on ebay (mine)
 
I personally think it should be illegal to sell 'ordinary, common' coins for more than their actual worth.

Tickets for festivals normally have T&Cs stating they can't be sold for more than what they are worth (if they are permitted to by sold on at all) and I think this should apply to things like money as well. It undermines the entire concept of cash value if you can sell it for more than it is actually worth, it's absolutely ridiculous, especially when the justification of it is 'well people should read things properly'... yes, they definitely should, but that also indicates that people are taking advantage out of people who don't know any better, and if it was done of the scale of big business, I'd like to think more of a fuss would be made.

Exploitation isn't nice in any given situation and I think to justify one kind but disapprove of another is inconsistent at too many levels for me!

Re: undated 20p on ebay (mine)
 
why? if ya give a proper description of the item n some knob buys it fer more n its worth, no sympathy here.
