coin collecting

TreyeMe · 08-29-2006, 03:35 PM

i was wondering if anyone could tell me or give me a link to another site about this coin i have...i found something if you search for "LIBERTE EGALITE FRATENITE 10 Cmes"...all though it seems it is only worth 10 dollars in auctions i was wondering the true value of this coin....thank you

RF = République Française
10 Cmes = 10 centimes (0.10 francs)

Would it be worth more if somebody hadn't shot a hole through it?

Zazula · 08-29-2006, 07:20 PM

I believe this shot, yustr, came from the rifle you've been trying to sell around here...

what? i thought that is was new.. never been fired.. did you lie to me yustr?

Hi,

Sorry guys, Yustr is a very liberal person and doesn't believe in owning guns. Therefore, I seriously doubt that he fired it or even owns one. This must be some kind of Connecticut scam he is running. Buyer beware!

na my uncle thought it was gonna be worth something and i tried to explain to him that it wasnt but to prove to him i thought id get some one elses advice...he will probably say the same thing he said before

"g*d d*mn computers you cant trust what they say its all just a bunch of bull%^&" he has high hopes for almost everything he does or comes across....

thanks for the note and if you looking into buying some guns.....ummm i might have some marked ones in the back.....half priced

Hi,

You didn't buy those guns from "Yustr", did you? Have to beware of those Connecticut scams.

yustr · 08-31-2006, 12:29 PM

Hey Tumble, (or should I call you Weed?)

Did you know that Samuel Colt manufactured "The gun that won the West" in Hartford? HISTORICAL LINK HERE

But the one I'm selling is a not-so-rare French Infantry Rifle. Its never been fired. Only dropped once.

It's an exact duplicate of the most rare French Infantry Rifle in the world; that one has actually been fired in combat. Legend has it that only one exists. But experts are not in agreement on its authenticity.
