Estate Sale Description (SEO-Optimized)

Offered in this online estate sale is a vintage African world coin collection with a strong emphasis on Tunisia, accompanied by examples from South Africa, Mauritius, Mozambique, and India, reflecting colonial and protectorate-era coinage. The group spans primarily the early to mid-20th century, including coins dated in both Gregorian and Islamic (AH) calendars.

This collection includes a variety of denominations and formats, such as holed coins, bronze and copper issues, and larger module pieces that were commonly used for everyday commerce. Several coins are identified by the original collector as scarcer types or silver issues, adding additional interest for collectors of African and colonial-era numismatics.

Coins are housed in individual collector holders and show circulation wear consistent with age. The grouping reflects intentional collecting rather than random accumulation and offers strong appeal for world coin collectors, African specialists, historians, educators, estate buyers, and resellers.

All items are offered as found from a private estate collection and have not been professionally graded.
