Description: OK... I have had to do some research on this one. I have looked at this coin at ultra high magnification and it has not been manipulated and there is no trace of a dot of any kind. Netherlands coin forum "specialists" note that it is authentic and not manipulated. 1848 "no dot" after date Netherlands 25 cent pieces are rare and valuable. See below. In 1849 Netherlands 25 cent piece varieties are known to exist. Including a "no dot" variety. Exceptionally rare. Only a few possibilities exist: 1) It is a 1849/8 over struck "no dot" 1848. The 1849/8 is rare and valuable on its own (see below). 2) It is a very rare incomplete die/ error coin.3) It was specifically struck with no dot in a very limited run not intended for circulation. Likely for novelty purposes. Looks like it probably found its way into circulation anyways though. Still in pretty good shape though. No Netherlands coin forum "specialists" could give me any kind of exact numbers as to how many "no dot" 1849 Netherlands 25 Cent pieces exist or the value of this kind of coin. Just a consensus that it is exceptionally rare with likely no more than a few hundred existing. I have refrained from posting this coin for several weeks while I gathered this information. I have provided every tidbit of information I could gather. Any more information anybody could provide would be greatly appreciated and will be included into the ad. I do have a 30 day full refund policy if you have any concerns about the authenticity or rarity of this coin. No questions asked. Passes the magnet test. Scale weight checks out.

Combined Shipping I do offer combined shipping. 1 charge for as many items as your heart desires. No extra charge per extra item. True combined shipping. If there are two shipping fee charges for two separate items assume it is the higher of the two numbers.

I don’t know why my buyers still get this message every once and a while…. I have attempted to resolve it with Ebay Customer service on a few occasions. I do try to keep my shipping charges to a minimum. I want my customers to purchase the item I am selling…. Not purchase inflated shipping charges.
