Welcome to the Coin Club. We are an assortment of newbies, amateurs and experts with questions and answers for newbies, amateurs and experts in coin collecting, also known as numismatics. Whether you are just getting started, have been collecting for years or have simply found some old coins about the place that you’d like to sell, this is the place to ask your questions.

No one has all the answers, and you may get five differing answers to the same question, yet each may be right in a manner of speaking, especially if opinions are involved. Opinions often vary. If you receive no answer to your query within 48 hours, please ask again

I think we'll piss-bowl it, even if we're a bit winded by the time we get there.

Well, it's a turn of phrase I learned here, so maybe it's a South Island thing? I understand it to mean that something will be knocked over easily, though the "piss" part of it suggests it will be done sloppily. So get your gummies on!

I just purchased a 1991 RWC $5 coin from a Junk shop..

Cost me $5:00 which I thought was a good price for resale.. However I see they are on here for about that price.. lol

It is untouched in a plastic case and folder..

hi spike_01,on a good day they do sell between $5.00-$10.00 each, going back a few years ago you could have got between $10.00-$20.00 for it.
cat/valve says $15.00 [120,000 were mint in that year]
hope that helps you out,cheers peter

Cool, good to know I'm not going insane. Or if I am, then at least THIS is not an indicator. Maybe it's a tradie thing, then. I've not followed cricket to speak of, but I believe I've heard the term used to describe the 1981 underarm rolling of the ball in the NZ/Aus game.

Not so pleased I had to pay so much for my new 1915-S Buff, but then she's a wee beauty and someone tried to drill a hole in the one I have now. I'm sure the seller won't have minded too much.

I often try to have more coin listings in the run-up to Christmas. I think there's a mix of buyer's who are taking a stab in the dark for a gift combined with people from overseas here for uni or something. They're getting ready to go home and are doing their dash with remaining cash. That's my theory.

Sadly, I have not got a lot of stock at the moment and was rather disappointed with sales on a few things that I have in excess. C'est la vie. James Bond has been giving me a boost here lately, so the cost of the Buff was pretty nicely offset, as was that bottle of Glen Morangie.

I've "seen" chris elsewhere. Maybe just busy?

And thanks, bizarre, and congrats on 500!
