Very Good. (N/A). Circulated coins with wear and general marks. String seems a plastic sort of later type but not sure of age. Some of the coins are definitely early but then these were used for centuries. It is a remarkable piece whatever the case. We sold a previous one but it was only about half the length of this one. Would take some patience to put this together. Estimate: $50-100
