Just did a count of Victorian 25c coins for sale on eBay, and got this:
105 coins listed from Canadian sources
100 coins listed from US sources
3 coins listed from other sources
Looks like a big market for Victorian 25c coins outside of Canada.

No, just checked the Victorian 25c coins. This takes a bit of time to count each one of them. For newer dates, it looks like the bulk of listings comes from Canada.

I had counted 1 year at a time in order to have store listings combined with auction listings.

If you use a search such as the one suggested by zonad,do it from ebay.ca where you can filter for items located in Canada,items located outside of North America,and items located in North America not including Canada.

While I've got my ebay search notes out. I found this thread interesting and on Oct 18 I searched for the 25 most recent sales of Victoria 25 cents listed by US sellers.21 were repatriated,4 stayed in the US,and 1 went to Germany.

This week there are only 60 Victoria 25 cents listed on ebay.Is demand(price) down due to current economic conditions,or is the supply side weakining?

I looked at some of the most recent pricing info I have from eBay, and its hard to tell if there is a change in pricing. More trades are needed. Just a slow week perhaps?
