These coins were acquired loose. Select coins have been placed in protective holders, and the remaining coins have been carefully wrapped in acid-free tissue paper for safe storage and transit.

CONDITION All coins are circulated, ungraded, and uncertified. Wear varies consistent with age and circulation and may include toning, patina, marks, and surface wear. The Gibraltar note shows light handling consistent with age.
