These pictures probably display on your screen larger than life.  Ebay has a 1000 x 1000 minimum pixel size that MOST people totally ignore and put one single lousy photo and expect you to judge condition by that.  Is that laziness or being deceptive? I'm a little guilty of being lazy in that I am only showing one side of the coins, but hey, you have a dozen large  clearly focused photos which is more than most listings have.  These photos are straight out of the camera but have been reduced down to approx 1365 x 1025.  In most photos, this results in a coin displaying larger than life on computer monitors. This is like examining it with a loupe or magnifying glass!

 You get all of the exact coins shown here - 8 coins total. 1970  South Africa  Proof Set 50C 20 10 5 2  1/2 1C   Silver rand 
The 1970 set can be hard to find.  In fact, This is about the 2cnd hardest year to find in the wild.

On this one, special shipping:   This ships for $4.50 and as long as you one send only one payment then each additional set is at the following rates 2 sets: $7 , 3 sets $8, 4 sets $10, 5 sets $12. 6 to 10 sets $14, 11 to 20 sets $16.  If the actual shipping is less you will get a refund.

 (You'll have to ask for an invoice to get the discount). When possible we put these in small and medium flat rate boxes.   Whatever you do, don't send more than one payment. Ask for an invoice and I'll be more than happy to work with you to reduce shipping costs.  Read below about what happens when you ignore this request.

 If you send more than one payment it might be a problem so continue reading to avoid hard feelings and costly shipping:


Terms of Sale:  It seems that people want the shipping discount but won't work with me to make it easy for me to combine and ship them. Way too many people disregard my request to use the shopping cart and to only send one payment.  Please understand that you are buying these under the following terms:

If you send more than one payment you will get multiple packages at your expense.  If you send more than one payment I reserve the right to cancel one or more or all of the orders.  

If you disagree with these terms or are not happy about them simply do not purchase from me. 

RANT:  I'm a nice, easy going guy, but I just feel like buyers are totally disregarding my time  and totally disrespecting me as a person by sending multiple payments and expecting a combined shipping discount and thinking that I can just lump it and do the extra work. This is why it is spelled out about sending ONE PAYMENT and the consequences if you don't.

Ebay does not support combining separate payments into one shipment and does not provide the functionality to do so.It causes problems, wastes materials, and causes data to have to be entered manually in several different areas/pages (which may result in mistakes or errors) and that is why you see in almost every listing on ebay (not just mine) the request to send in only ONE PAYMENT. Often, especially with bigger items, or coins or slabs/lapidary rough, when I combine the items I usually upgrade to a box so that is an additional incentive to send only one payment. I am more than happy to combine orders and to save you money on shipping. I want to do that as it is easiest to pack just one box, provided that I don’t have multiple packing slips to print, don’t have to manually add tracking, and don’t have to log in to paypal and send refunds on multiple payments.

Canada -  I'll refund anything that was paid over the actual USPS charges.  Buyer is responsible for customs taxes, fees, tariffs, import tax, VAT, etc, if any.  International buyers assume all risks in shipping, including lost packages. If you don't agree with these terms then do not purchase from me.

All international Shipping including Canada:   Buyer is responsible for customs taxes, fees, tariffs, import tax, VAT, etc, if any.  International buyers assume all risks in shipping, including lost packages.  Buyer is responsible for return shipping in the unlikely event that you wish to return it.  This has been very carefully and accurately described and I have made sure of that. If this is not acceptable to you or you do not agree to those terms then do not purchase from me.

On International shipping I will refund any amount paid over the actual postage costs, less $1 for all of the heavy strapping tape that I put on the box (*if needed for shipping rocks). In the unlikely event that the shipping costs are more than stated in this listing, buyer agrees to pay the actual costs or to cancel the purchase at buyers discretion.


International buyers are responsible for any customs fees, import taxes, tariffs, etc, if any.

I have other South Africa coins, Rands, Britannia's, etc
