PALESTINE (ISRAEL) 100 Mils 1933 Fine-12 72% SILVER 0.2700 ASW KM#7

Announcement

I am a member of the American Numismatic Association and the Iowa Numismatic Association.  I follow the grading standards set forth by the ANA except that I consider MS-67 (SUPER GEM) or Proof-67 (SUPER GEM) a perfect coin.  Thus MS-68/69/70 and PF-68/69/70 I do not use unless it is a slabbed coin certified by PCGS, NGC, ICG, ANACS, CCCS (Canadian Coin Certification Service), or ICCS (International Coin Certification Service).  Unless I otherwise indicate in the listing all my coins are exact specific coins.  I incorporate my stock codes in my listings.  Take for example this one from a 1981-D MS-64 (Near Gem) Washington Quarter I sold.

(Stock #25c1981364 KZKTTG KLGAdbK)

The first part 25c1981364 gives the denomination, date, mintmark code, and grade. The second part KZKTG KLGAdbK is my stock code.  Any attribution such as a type designation (like TYPE 2 on 1979 or 1981 USA Proof Coins), speciality designation (like FSB on Mercury Dimes), error notation, OverMintMark (such as D OVER S for a 1955-D/S Jefferson Nickel), RPM (Repunched Mintmark), etc. will appear between the firrst and second parts.  Take for example this 1952 PROOF SUPERBIRD PF-63 (Choice Proof) Washington Quarter I sold:

(Stock #25c1952963 SUPERBIRD MHMDBGT MLRVaLPR)

SUPERBIRD appears in the middle as this is the variety specific to that date and individual coin.

My stock codes insure that no matter how many coins I may have of the same denomination, date, mintmark and grade the choice is yours.  You do the picking and I do the shipping.  That said all coins are subject to prior sale especially when I am a coin show.  I try to delete sold listings as quick as possible.  However, in the event that you buy a coin that I have sold I will promptly give you your choice of a refund or purchase credit if I cannot send you a similar quality coin of the same grade or cannot quickly obtain a replacement of the coin in the same grade in a time you agree to be acceptable.

Special Notes on Jefferson Nickels: Any Jefferson Nickels I sell by date which are uncirculated are described by strike as follows in ascending quality: Weak, Average, Strong and SHARP.  If the coin has 5 or 6 steps that are full then it qualifies as Full Steps. Any Jefferson described as Near Full Steps is a coin that just misses the Full Step designation because of one to three light marks which interrupt one or more of the steps.

Special Notes on Roosevelt Dimes:  FB is the designation I use for fully separated horizontal bands on the center torch.  FT is the designation for a coin that is FB AND has a nice strongly struck center torch with no visible contact marks.

TERMS OF SALE:

ORDERS STANDARD (Less than $100 USD) DOMESTIC (TO ADDRESSES INSIDE U.S.A.):

Most orders are sent Economy Shipping.  "Ecomony shipping" means USPS First Class Mail in white envelopes sealed with clear shipping tape.  USPS First Class Mail does NOT have tracking numbers or insurance.  I do ship orders as USPS Ground Advantage or USPS Priority Mail Cubic to domestic addresses (inside the U.S.A.) at no additional charge if any one of the following four factors apply:

#1 Your order is HIGH TICKET (which is equal to or more than $100 USD) .  See below if your order is HIGH TICKET. 

#2 Your order contains any single coin which is thicker than an American Silver Dollar minted in 1935 or before. 

#3 Your order contains more than six coins.

#4 Your order contains any single item such as a proof set, mint set, supplies, albums, or a slabbed coin that obviously cannot fit a first class envelope.

If you wish your order to be shipped as USPS Ground Advantage when none of the four factors apply this will be an additional charge of $7.00 if your order is domestic (to addresses inside the U.S.A.).  To request this upgraded shipping during the checkout processes hit request a total from seller before you pay for your order.  I will then send you an updated invoice with the $7.00 surcharge added for your shipping upgrade. 

ORDERS HIGH TICKET (Equal To Or Exceeding $100 USD) DOMESTIC (TO ADDRESSES INSIDE U.S.A.)::

 Your order is a package (regardless of the number or type of items in your order) and will be shipped as USPS Ground Advantage. I will also include insurance on the full value of your order via ShipandInsure.  However, be aware that ShipandInsure requires the restricted delivery of Signature Confirmation.  This means that only the party or parties who paid the invoice may sign for the package. 

ORDERS STANDARD (less than 100 USD) INTERNATIONAL (to addresses outside the U.S.A.)

The same above terms for ORDERS STANDARD DOMESTIC will also apply to you except:

#1 "Economy shipping" means USPS First Class Mail International in white envelopes sealed with clear shipping tape which does NOT have a tracking number or insurance.  However, past experience tells me that orders shipped this way tend to arrive in between 10 and 18 business days.

#1 The surcharge for upgraded shipping when none of the above four factors apply will depend upon the country of destination and the weight of your envelope.

#2 If one of the above four factors apply you may receive a surcharge depending on the contents of your order.  Generally this surcharge will apply to bulky heavy items such as rolls of coins, mint sets, proof sets, albums, and supplies.  If I deem it necessary to add a surcharge I will calculate the difference between domestic and international shipping based upon the weight of the package and the destination country and I will charge you only the difference.   

#3 I send out international packages by USPS First Class Package International Service which requires a customs form detailing the contents, weight, and value of the package.  Depending upon the country of destination you may incur customs duties at the time your package is delivered.  Such duties will be your responsibility.  While international packages usually take about 5 to 10 business days to exit the U.S.A., past experience tells me that your order may also take several weeks to clear customs in the destination country and therefore can be much slower than USPS First Class Mail International.  USPS First Class Package International Service does include a tracking number.  From experience I can say that it does provide a detail history of scans by USPS through the shipping process out of the U.S.A until it arrives in the destination country.  However, I personally am not often not able to see a final scan of delivery in the destination country.   

ORDERS HIGH TICKET (Equal To Or Exceeding $100 USD) INTERNATIONAL: the same above terms for ORDERS HIGH TICKET DOMESTIC apply to you except:

 #1 I may apply an international surcharge on the difference in the postage from USPS Ground Advantage verses International which requires USPS First Class Package International Service.  This will be done on a case by case basis.  Also be aware that ShipandInsure insurance is not available for every country.  If your receiving address is in any one of the following countries I can include ShipandInsure insurance on your order without prior approval from them:

                Argentina, AUSTRALIA, Austria, Belgium, Bolivia, Botswana, BRAZIL, CANADA, Chile, Croatia, Cyprus, CZECH REPUBLIC, Denmark, Egypt, Estonia, Finland, FRANCE, French Polynesia, GERMANY, Iceland, India, ISRAEL, ITALY, JAPAN, Kuwait, Latvia, Malaysia, Malta, Mexico, Monaco, New Zealand, NORWAY, POLAND, Portugal, Qatar, Romania, Serbia, Singapore, Slovakia, South Africa, South Korea, SPAIN, SWEDEN, SWITZERLAND, Thailand, Turkey, UAE (United Arab Emirates), UK (UNITED KINGDOM OF GREAT BRITAIN & NORTHERN IRELAND).

SHIPMENT DATE (APPLIES TO ALL DOMESTIC & INTERNATIONAL ORDERS STANDARD and HIGH TICKET): 

Always watch your email for an updated invoice after your order is finalized and after I have shipped it FOR YOUR SHIPMENT DATE.  Under the Grand Total you will see a box that says "Seller Notes" and this where I post your shipment date for example:

Shipped Saturday 02d 03m 24.

The date I enter will be the date your order enters USPS custody.  If I am not mailing at my local or a nearby post office I will also add the city and state of the post office I mail your order at.  If USPS returns your order to me I will add in "Notes From Seller" both the day I received the return and the date I reshipped it.

I also use the "Seller Notes" box to add any pre-shipment notes.  For example I may say "Order Pulled" followed by a specific date (especially when I am at a coin show and may not be able to get your order out until I return to my office).  If you order say four coins through four separate invoices on the same day and I mail all four in the same envelope or package I will list each coin and say "consolidated to one order and shipped ---" so you know you will receive the four coins in one shipment not four shipments.

If your order ships by USPS Ground Advantage, Priority Mail Cubic or USPS First Class Package International Package it will have a tracking number.  You can see this number two ways: 

#1 Login to USA Coin Book and the number login to USA Coin Book and on the left side of the page you will see "Activity Menu" and under that you will see "Buyer Summary."  Under "Buyer Summary" click on "Purchase History/Invoices" and that will bring up all the coins you have ever bought from anyone on USA Coin Book with your most recent purchases appearing at the top of the first page.  Once I post the tracking number it will appear under "Marked As Paid and Shipped - Invoice Complete" under each coin I have shipped you with that individual tracking number. 

#2 Login to the email account you have on file with USA Coin Book.  The day I create the shipping label for your package you should receive an email from Pirateship.com and that email will also have the tracking number.

I am not responsible for packages that are lost, stolen, damaged, misdirected or otherwise late due to actions, errors, and omissions by USPS or the postal service provider in a country outside the U.S.A.  I will not issue refunds in such events as I have no control over their operations unless your order was insured.  If your order was insured I may refund in part or in full only when I receive settlement funds.  You agree not to pursue claims or chargebacks through any third party including Paypal.  If you are having problems receiving your order from me once I have posted your ship date or any other mail on time please contact the Post Master or Delivery Supervisor at your local post office. 

PAYPAL DOUBLE PAYMENT ERRORS: (APPLIES TO ALL DOMESTIC & INTERNATIONAL ORDERS STANDARD and HIGH TICKET):   There have been rare occasions where customers have made a Paypal payment to me either directly through Paypal or through the USACB messaging system and a glitch error has occurred where it paid me twice for the same order.  In this situation you can actually contact Paypal Customer Service to have the second payment reversed and sent back to you.  If you are not able to call them or would prefer that I initiate the reversal of the second double payment contact me as soon as possible.  The best way to do that is to

                #1 Call me immediately (regardless of what day or time it is) if you live inside the U.S.A..  My phone number is listed on the invoice. 

                #2 If I do not answer my phone do not leave a voice mail.  Hang up and then immediately send me a text message stating that you made a second double payment and include in the text the exact amount, date, time and the number of the USACB invoice involved.  If you are texting me from a phone number that is different than the phone number on your USACB invoice please include that phone number as well. 

                #3 If you cannot text me, would prefer to send an email or if you live outside the U.S.A. then:

                #4 Find my hotmail email address on your USACB Invoice.  Send me an email directly to my hotmail address and in the subject line type USACB Invoice #(key in exact invoice number) PAYPAL DOUBLE PAYMENT ERROR URGENT.  I will then as soon as possible verify the double payment in my Paypal account either on my desktop or laptop computer and then contact Paypal Customer Service and process a reversal for the full amount of the double payment. 

Most of the time I have caught these double payment glitch errors.  Usually when double payment errors occur I will see two Paypal incoming payment emails with the same exact amounts from the same buyer on the same date within a few minutes of each other and both reference the same USACB Invoice number.  However, there have been a few times where I have received only one payment email on invoice but still received a double payment.  In these cases I discovered the double payment only after I logged in to Paypal to review recent payments. 

RETURNS AND EXCHANGES (APPLIES TO ALL DOMESTIC & INTERNATIONAL ORDERS STANDARD and HIGH TICKET):

You have seven business days upon receipt to view and enjoy your coins and/or other merchandise to ensure your complete satisfaction.  A "business day" includes all calendar days except any Saturday, Sunday, or any day the USPS observes as a holiday and is closed for retail operations.  If your address is DOMESTIC (inside the U.S.A.) "receipt" is fourteen business days after the ship date I provide on your online invoice if I sent your order as USPS First Class Mail.  If I sent your order as USPS Ground Advantage or by any other service which provided a delivery tracking number then "receipt" is either the day it was scanned delivered to you or the day you signed for it on Signature Required packages.  If your address is INTERNATIONAL (outside the U.S.A.) then "receipt" is twenty business days if I sent your order by First Class Mail International.  If I sent your order by First Class Mail International Service or by any other service which provided a delivery tracking number then "receipt" is the sooner of these three:  #1 the date your package was scanned as delivered, or #2 the day you signed for it on Signature Required packages, or #3 twenty business days.

If during these seven business days you are not satisfied in whole or part with any item or items in your order you may return and/or exchange provided that:

#1 the item or items is/are not identified as "bullion" in the title or subtitle of the listing and marked all sales final in the description of the listing  

#2 notify me by either email or the USA Coin Book messaging system that you wish you wish to initiate a return and/or exchange.

#3 Wait for my response.  Note that for any exchange I need delete or disable the live listing for the item you are exchanging for. 

#4 Once I respond tell me the day you are going to mail the return and/or exchange so that I have an idea roughly of the estimated time of arrival and can process it ASAP. 

#5 The item or items must be returned in their original holders so once you remove a staple on a coin holder the return or exchange privilege is void.

#6 All shipping costs on returns and exchanges will be at your expense.

#7 For returns on items paid by Paypal you will receive 95% of the purchase price credited to your Paypal account due to non refundable Paypal fees on returns.

.#8 Exchanges will receive 100% of the purchase price credited toward my other available items for sale.
