Grigori's Coin Trade List

Notes


I'm always trying to make the list most up-to-date, but some years or denominations
may be reserved or unavailable at the moment since I'm doing a lot of trading.

Last update: April 17, 2000.

Ordinary coins

Below is a list of ordinary coins I have for trade. Ordinary means that I would agree to swap such coins to virtually any coins I don't have at one-to-one basis. Due to high postal charges I prefer to swap at least 6-8 coins at once.

Special coins

The following coins are much more valuable (at least to me) than ordinary coins listed above. I would agree to swap such a special coin only to another coin of about the same value, or to several coins that I consider to be ordinary.

Note 1
Coin grade is VF-XF unless otherwise stated. If a coin is available in several species of different years, the highest grade is given (e.g., "up to AU"). If you need a particular year, please ask me about this particular coin's grade. Grading my coins I tried to follow an excellent Coin Grading Guide.
Note 2
All coins listed in separate differ in essential details (not only year or mint mark).
Note 3
Metal abbreviations do not exactly describe the alloy but rather refer to the coin color. In particular,
Note 4
I'll trying to scan all coins available for trade. However, I'm using for this purpose coins from the main collection since they are usually somewhat better than doubles. Therefore, the grade and year of coins from the trade list may somewhat differ from what you see in pictures. If you are in doubt, I can scan and send you the right image of the coin you choose.
Note 5
Coins or years marked by red or green or pink are reserved (this means that someone has requested these coins and the negociations are in progress). Later such coins may disappear or become open for trade again. New coins that have appeared in the list less then 2-3 months ago are marked by icon with the date of appearance indicated. Visit again soon to see what's changed!
Note 6
I'm always trying to make the list most up-to-date, but some years or denominations may be reserved or out at the moment since a do a lot of trading.
Note 7
All images are aquired at 300 dpi resolution unless otherwise stated.
