European coins

Post by JenniferG » Mon Jun 28, 2021 8:53 am

Good morning! I have a number of older coins (circa 1940s - mid 1960s) from various countries in Europe. I would like to sell them! I'm very new to this, so looking for advice on how to do this.

Welcome to the Forum

What are you considering a number, 100 , 1000, less, more?

Usually European coins do not command a lot of money unless it is an error or a low mintage coin.
As with most coins, condition means a lot to it's value. Are they uncirculated, Graded?
Most coin dealers sell the regular European coins for about 50 cents each or sometimes they sell
them by the pound for about $7.50.

It all depends on what you have, can you give us a little more info or maybe photos of ones you
think may think have value.

Also just FYI in the world of coins, 1940-1960 is not considered old

Thanks for this helpful input! I have a small number of coins - less than 100. I have used an app called Coinoscope to identify them and give me a sense of their value. A few of them may be worth $25-50 each, the others would be less. I have photos, and will post them here when I figure out how to do so! Thanks again.
