I got these four lovelies with a lot of English coins. They're no use to me so they are available at 20% below catalog value. Apologies for the hasty photos. If anyone wants better ones I'll try again in natural light when I have more time although they might be sold by then.
Domestic shipping $3 which can be combined.
Overseas shipping to those countries with a reasonable chance of delivery at your cost and your risk. Typically, $3 1st class, $12 parcel, $25 registered. You will be given a counter receipt from the PO as proof of postage, if it doesn't arrive it's your problem.
1926 25 Ore VF $15
1926 50 Ore VF $28
1926 1 Krone VF $28
1960 1 Krone AU $46

It's possible to mail a single coin anywhere for less than $3 by 1st class letter post. Of course there is no tracking or any type of extra security but I never seem to have any problems with non delivery. If you can trust each other and you both live in parts of the world with reliable mail it's no more risky than sending a Christmas card.

I'll reserve it for you Phil. I've been writing up a list of a few coins you might like as I've been entering them. KM 1's and a few pretty obscure coins, that kind of stuff. I'm almost caught up and I will send it to you shortly.

Sorry mate, it was snapped up within the first hour despite some low class attempts to sabotage the thread. (cheers Ben for clearing out the spam, much appreciated as always)
I'm back in the buying up collections business and after taking out what I need breaking them up to fund the next one. If I get another cheap Greenland coin, say under $20(?), I'll send you a message before listing it for sale or swap.
You are not of course obliged to accept it, just a small gesture of appreciation for your many contributions. If it's a real cheap old dog of a coin I'd probably give it to you anyway.

Cita: "pnightingale"Sorry mate, it was snapped up within the first hour despite some low class attempts to sabotage the thread.
"Low class attempts to sabotage the thread"? I was simply telling everyone that your prices are way over the market value! I got the 50 øre in much better condition than your for not even half it your price - and that was including shipping!
Stop ripping people off!
Until the moderators get around to removing (for the 3rd time) this clownish spam, here's a link to NGC where the current prices can be checked. The prices offered are 20% below those values. Has anyone else ever offered a Greenland coin here for $15? No, thought not.
The prices are more than fair otherwise they wouldn't have sold so quickly. That speaks for itself. You can accept that, the wisdom of NGC, my own long established reputation, ask around the many members who have bought far more expensive lots in the past with absolute satisfaction, or you can put your trust in a guy with a very dubious reputation for swindling other members and a lot or negative bad feedback to his "credit" bordering on triggering the big red scammer warning. (go check, you'll see what I mean) Now go and check my own feedback, who's the scammer here eh? It's pathetic.
I really don't think it necessary to respond any further to a relative nobody with a shoddy reputation for dishonesty. You all know me, many of you have bought coins from me, and not a single one of you has ever been treated other than with extreme honesty, generosity and kindness. I've given away more coins than I can count, spent many, many hours coaching and advising new collectors and I have to wake up to vile slanders like this? The repeated claims being made by this nasty minded individual are beyond belief and frankly offensive to me.
If anyone has any doubts, speak up and I'll make 100% sure you won't get another coin from me at any price. You might disagree with me, you might not like me, that's peachy, but nobody will ever be able to claim that I have cheated them, period.
I believe that making an unfounded accusation against a long standing, and hopefully respected, member with an impeccable reputation for honesty, of "ripping people off" is a serious breach of both the forum rules and the Numista ToS. Given the recent out of control hysteria and attacks on many other members already on display elsewhere I believe it's time for a permanent ban, before things start to get really ugly, a la the Shamikb episode. After two previous attempts to clear up the spamming have only made it worse it should be clear by now that Mr ngdawa isn't going to stop on his own accord. Y'all dropped the ball with Shamikb and Coinsoldier by allowing the nonsense to continue until you lost effective control of the forum. I trust that lessons were learned and that this time action will be more prompt.

I carefully avoid getting involved in flamewars on this forum, as I do not want to add to the incivility, but in this case I have to comment.
I have swapped with Mr. Nightingale a couple of times. Both times I added excellent coins to my collection, while having very pleasant conversations. I have found him to be an honorable and decent man. Beyond that, I have always appreciated his contributions to Numista forums.
I find it dismaying that a Numista referee would attack, that is the only word for it, an another member of this forum, especially a member who has contributed so much to the forum.

OK, are you done now? Can we please move on?
BTW, we have 0 swaps and 0 msgs between us, so where did the "a relative nobody with a shoddy reputation for dishonesty" come from?
JFYI, I have a very high reputation and am known as an honest and knowledgable collector, so, that wasn't cool. At all.
Anyway, I have no interest in stating a fight or anything, it just seems that you have something against me, so why don't you just write me a message so we can sort it out? There's no need to shout in the forums, you just make a fool out of yourself, and to me, it seems a little unnecessary. All I said was that I got the coin in a higher grade for less than half of the price. I was expecting more of "good for you!" or "that's cool, congrats!". But I guess you just ain't that kind of a guy.
So, I'm sorry for sharing my latest catch in a thread which is about just that - making a nice catch.
Yes, I might have overreacted with "ripping people off", I admit.
Please don't get a headache over this. If you still feel the hatred rushing through your veins as soon as you see my name, please write me and tell me why. Just because we didn't agree in another thread it doesn't mean that we must hate each other in general. Does it?
So please, coold down and don't call people things you can't take back. Don't attack people with insults, when you don't even know the person in question. To me, this is getting really awkward.
I won't walk the same road as you and attack you with personal insults. Because obviously this was very emotional for you, so let me apologize. I am sorry for sharing my nice catch, and I am sorry.

This has nothing to do with it. I don't doubt he is a knowledgable collector whose swaps contains coins in great condition. I don't doubt, I even know, that he has contributed a lot to the Numista forum. But still, this is not the issue. The issue is his attitude here.
Obvioulsy, when all is said and done he's not a decent nor pleasent person. I do not think anyone can justify his latest post. I do not even think he can justify it himself. That was so low and so untrue that it was almost hurful. If it was anyone, anyone, but him who wrote that post, I bet my whole collection that that person whould be banned immediately. I just can't imagine that posts like that are tollerated in this forum, so it will be interesting to see what the referees will say about that. Even I was embarrased to read it.
But like I said. I admit that I am far from innocent, but does anyone reckon I deserved that?
I'm not sure what is going on here but you clearly tried to hijack the thread several times. I removed your images and posts. I've spent way more than that for a Greenland coin.
The he fact is Phil was selling a few. End of.
Perhaps the the title of the post led you to believe it was a post for everyone to bring and share but it wasn't.
It it was just a sales post (with a questioning title).
Anyway, you have come out on several posts to attack Phil or others and I'm not sure why?
I will ill state that Phil is a friend but I don't defend him here as that. As moderator, I don't understand your contributions and perhaps you need to rethink.
Cita: "bam777"I'm not sure what is going on here but you clearly tried to hijack the thread several times. I removed your images and posts.
Please explain how I tried to "hijack" the thread? Because this is were it all started. I felt that he tried to hide that one could get the coin in better condition for a much lower price. All I said what "check this out, it's much cheaper!". That's all. I don't understand why that was censored. No one was hurt - or attacked.

This is because of his attitude. I can't stand by when people are behaving like he does, or expressing himself about others, might be better worded.
What he said in the last post should lead to an eternal ban. I wouldn't dream of saying even half of that, even to my worst enemy! It's full of so much hate and so much self glorifying that it makes me sick to my stomach. So yes, of course I cannot just stand by when people are behaving like that.
I reckon you should take a long talk with him, because that behaviour is far from okay. Or at least it should be. How can anyone say "if anyone has any doubts, speak up and I'll make 100% sure you won't get another coin from me at any price"? That is the same thing as saying "if you don't agree with me, I will punish you, no matter what " I mean, get off your high horse mate!
Please leave this intact. I've asked Xavier to review the contents of this thread with a view to removing the referee status and forum privileges of the offending party.

Cita: "bam777"clearly tried to hijack the thread.
and
Cita: "pnightingale"clownish spam
This was my post:
How is this "clownish" and an attempt to hijack the thread? It was deleted, I though I might've forgot to press send or someone wanted to hide overpriced sellings.
Anyway, also, please, tell me how this post justifies comments like:
Cita: "pnightingale"put your trust in a guy with a very dubious reputation for swindling other members and a lot or negative bad feedback to his "credit" bordering on triggering the big red scammer warning. (go check, you'll see what I mean) Now go and check my own feedback, who's the scammer here eh? It's pathetic.
1) This is untrue
2) What??
3) Who is pathetic here? My posts or his. No, just take this single one.
Cita: "pnightingale"I really don't think it necessary to respond any further to a relative nobody with a shoddy reputation for dishonesty.
If I would've said this to someone, would I've been banned than? Will this be tolerated?
Cita: "pnightingale"The repeated claims being made by this nasty minded individual are beyond belief and frankly offensive to me.
I am so sorry to have offended you. But I must say that you took it pretty well.
And then the king have spoken:
Cita: "pnightingale"If anyone has any doubts, speak up and I'll make 100% sure you won't get another coin from me at any price.
Cita: "pnightingale"nobody will ever be able to claim that I have cheated them, period.
I don't know who said that he's been cheating anyone, but since my posts showing a better price was disappearing, I started to wonder what was going on.
The last part, in bold, I will just ignore since it was mostly about how talented, humbled, and popular he is.
So, what I am wondering is:
1. Was this behavior justified?
2. Is such behavior okay here on Numsita?
3. Would a behavior that this could lead to an exclusion?
And also
4. How will this be treated?
I now hope that you understand my side of it all, and why I feel mistreated and insulted.

That would be awesome....I'm only after the pre-1945 coins to fit in with the rest of my collection.
As to the battle that seems to have gone on, all I can say is, Phil has put them up for sale, set the price and provided a picture (albeit a rather drunken picture in some instances) he has complied completely with the rules regarding the sale of coins on this thread. If you don't like the price, or you can find them cheaper elsewhere, then the simple advice is don't buy these ones. What's the big deal?
Or are you still fuming about the other thread you got all high and mighty about, and since that one has been locked off you decided to move your bile onto this one?

First, this has nothing to do with the other thread. If there are disagreements in a thread, keep them in the thread. You got a real problem if your anger/disappointment/whatever i's brought to another thread.
I have no complains about Phil, how he started the thread or anything. I was just surprised the he censored my post where I showed my newest purchase of a Greenlandic 50 øre for just 12 USD incl. shipping. When this post was removed twice, it seemed like he didn't wanted anyone to see that his 28 USD + shipping might've been a little too much.
But "the big deal" is, like I have said about 20,000 times now, Phil's response to all this. Calling me dishonest, a spamming clown, a nobodyand so on.
I can clearly see that he might have personal issues and inferiority complex, but to misbehave like he did just stunned me. I know nothing about him, and he knows nothing about me, yet he talks down on me and belittling me in public (at the same time he is giving creds to himself). That is shameful! And that is my "big deal".
Firstly, It's the moderator that deletes posts, not Phil
Secondly, if you're posting about how the coins are overpriced or showing pictures of coins you got cheaper then you are trying to sabotage the thread (i.e. moving the topic away from the original content or trying to cast dispersions about the person who posted it)
In my mind this is exactly what you were trying to do with these posts
" might be interested in the 50 Øre, but I don't have any 28 dollars..... "
"I was simply telling everyone that your prices are way over the market value! I got the 50 øre in much better condition than your for not even half it your price - and that was including shipping!
Stop ripping people off!"
I got this coin for US$6 , the catalogue value is US$50, that doesn't mean that someone selling one for US$45 is "ripping people off"
If you got one for less than Phil is selling it for then good for you, but the fact is that the catalogue value for the 50 Ore is US$35 in VF, so US$28 is not a bad price, and many others also think so since it went quickly and there were several of us that would have taken it if we had got in fast enough.
There are Numerous threads on here where people ask for well over catalogue value for their coins, but you haven't said anything on their threads. Why? Because you obviously have some personal vendetta against Phil and are trying your best to cause trouble.
Yep, I was really lucky because the woman didn't know what it was, so she advertised it as "old coin" and there were no other bidders on it.
It was given to the Hannoverian survivors of the battle of Waterloo on the 50th anniversary of the battle as part of their pension. Mintage of just 15,000. If you see one advertised for anything close to catalogue value I would suggest picking it up ASAP.
Gentlemen, thank you for the heartwarming support. It has brightened what started as a miserable day (who wants this kind of crap before the first coffee) to know that this opinion presented wasn't shared by anyone of importance.
Strange thing to see on Numista where everyone uses NGC to assess values. I was wondering if we were going to abandon the K&M model and base all future valuations on what some guy claims he once paid another guy on eBay. Laughable, no?
Yes Dan, I'll be more than happy to keep an eye open for another cheapo Greenland coin (Neil getting first refusal of course). It's going to be the 25 Ore most likely as I don't recall seeing the 1928 issues in less than VF. Limited circulation in such a close knit and tight community I'm guessing. Are you not tempted by my beautiful old San Marino coins yet? I know you want them:)
I'm talking to a guy right now from a few miles up US19 who says he has an album full of "old rare stuff" from when he was a kid. Well, kids don't tend to have albums full of rare coins but we'll see. Its quite odd, I don't advertise at all but I get offers from all over Florida referred by dealers who just want the silver. They know they won't aggravate their customers by making the referral because I'll treat the seller fairly.
Not bad for a "rip off artist" eh?

Daniel San move with speed of Ninja. Got anything nice in the way of a pre 1900 UK coin to trade? Cold hard green or junk silver works just as well but our first trade is long overdue after several false starts. (I get distracted and forget all about swaps)
Neil, I had three this morning but sold one before lunch. I've been thinning out a lot of the less costly coins from my swap list, down to only 3,000 now with only Europe S-Z to go. I intend to sell them off in large lots for cent on the dollar, I've get rid of thousands but it's proving to be too slow. Not your kind of thing I reckon but please feel free to drop me a line anytime you see a coin among those remaining you need, we can work out something I'm sure.

You might get them cheaper on eBay but mine are somewhat different as there are very few duplicates, 1,000 coins will probably yield 995 distinct dates / types, even a bit of lower value silver but not enough to get excited about. I'm almost finished culling the swap list so I'll put them up for an attractive price shortly. I've got them separated by date, pre 1900, 1900-1919, 1920-1939 etc. so I would expect the earlier lots to go quickly.
