So i have a few items available that should not last long here lets start with terms, all prices are + postage at buyers choce/cost/risk however i will often cover basic post if you buy multiple items, just ask via pm Lot 1 - 1892 South african Pond, the 1st in the pond series and known by collectors as the coin was prepared at the Berlin Mint by the artist Otto Schultz (OS on the bust truncation). Unfortunately he depicted a double shafted wagon with wheels of equal size in the arms on the reverse, the correct form was single shafted with larger rear wheels. In addition his initials was the Africaans word for an Ox. The coins were quickly withdrawn from circulation as soon as the faults were recognised. thus the mintage (ultra low 12k!) does not reflect the actual rarity of this coin as most were destroyed. this example is mount removed but still desirable at $850 South Africa Pond KM 10.1 Prices & Values | NGC (ngccoin.com) Lot 4 - Mount removed Ducat, essentially spot at only $320!! - sold pending
lot 5 one of the harder date 1/10 Krugerands, 1986 has only 87k mintage compared to other years like 1982 which has over 1 million - $375 Lot 6 - the real star of the show, a 1970-71 Myanmar 1 mu. this coin has a massive history behind it and is worth a read. most where destroyed shortly after mintage as possession was punishable by death and its only those smuggled out of country that survived! $450 Worldwide Numismatics - Burma (lakdiva.org.lk) "These coins were minted in pure 24 karat gold by the anti-Ne Win rebel movement (Patriotic Liberation Army) in Tsung Gyi Kor Lone which was not under central government control. The PLA used their total 80 kilogram reserve of gold to mint these coins in the three sizes. When U Nu disavowed support of ethnic minorities, the PLA central committee disagreed and U Nu resigned his leadership position and went into voluntary exile in India. The PLA then ordered the defacement of U Nu's name from coins then in circulation. The central government made ownership a high crime punishable by death so many people totally defaced the coins by pounding them in gold wafers."
