COINCRAFT OFFERS COINS IN QUANTITY

For the young and old dealers among our readers, Richard Lobel of Coincraft is offering some bulk deals. He submitted this summary. -Editor

  Coincraft  storefront

I founded Coincraft – Britain's Coin Shop in 1955, we only sell to collectors, we do not sell anything for investment and we do not borrow money from the bank. Over the years we have accumulated one of the largest inventories of British coins and banknotes in the world. Because when we buy a hoard we do not dump it, we just put it in stock.

As I am now 78 years old, and feel that it is time to lighten up our inventory a bit. I would prefer to sell all of an item to one person or company, that way there will be no competition between companies. I am listing some of the fantastic items that we have in quality, you provide the idea and we provide the coins and banknotes. Many of these items you cannot get elsewhere, especially in the quantities that you need to do a big promotion.

Our prices are reasonable considering the years we spent putting this inventory together. Yes, you may be able to buy 5 or 10 pieces some places at a cheaper price, but no promotion is viable with those sort of numbers. For example the 1977 Silver Jubilee crown in cupro-nickel is being advertised for between £10 and £20. We have 16,000 pieces in stock and our price is as low as £1.75!
