If numismatic enthusiasts can pay huge sums for 1 sol coins, this case proves that at least they must be in good condition. This is what a young man found out when he was criticized on social media for planning to auction a 5 sol coin at a high base price.
YOU CAN SEE: Do you have it? 1 sol coin from 2022 could be valued at up to 300 soles
Buying and selling offers are very abundant on Facebook and TikTok, to the point that a man asked for up to a million dollars for his collection of 1 sol coins from Peru.
Taking advantage of the national coin fever, a young Peruvian had the idea of auctioning a 5 sol coin from 1995 and started the bidding at 200 soles and even asked, "Who will offer more?"
Comments on his unique Facebook post did not wait, since the appearance of the auctioned coin was quite worn out and the frigate bird of the Nazca Lines could barely be seen.
Comments did not wait and despite the fact that there were some quite heated opinions, there were those who recommended the young man to work instead of selling a coin in that condition.
"A small piece of the gut... Well paid, nephew", "If it were in good condition, I would pay that price", "I'll give you a 1 sol coin from 1991", one can read in the post.
