<br> The coins I currently have in my collection probably range in dates from the early 1800s to the end of the 1900s, and they consist mostly of Bronze and Silver pieces from around the world. but surprisingly I've never had any German coins.
<br>
<br> *keep in mind that most of my coin collection are passed down through my family (or found coins), I have just recently started adding purchased coins into the set.
<br>so their values (for me) are mostly sentimental.

Well, I guess eBay will have to suffice as my LCS for now...  I was looking around the other night and these two coins came up, they are nothing special, but I just had to buy them, cuz... silver and cool. 
<br><br>
I paid (including shipping) just slightly above their silver weight price, but below their average numismatic value, so I consider it a good deal. <br>
