The collection is conservatively estimated to be worth at least $500 according to Herns Guide's 'good' values. Many of the coins are in much finer condition than 'good'.

A low reserve has been set at just 10% of the collection's conservative estimated value. (Just the 1925 Tiekie is worth at least double this reserve)

The combined total silver content of the collection is 100grams (+/- 3.5 oz). This alone equates to +/- $117 at time of listing
