An item being unlisted

I am trying to sell a few coins each valued over $1,000.  Both were unlisted.  I was given a list of three possible rules and prohibitions the listing violated, but none of them seemed to apply.  I can't find a way to contact Etsy directly to find out exactly why the item was unlisted.  Can anyone help on how to contact Etsy to find out why or to possibly explain why I was unlisted?

I cannot find out how to contact support.  How do you do so?

What coins were they? And what year?

One is a 1913 commemorative coin from Panama and the other is a 1915 gold quarter eagle.

https://www.etsy.com/ca/legal/prohibited/#Q5

"Given associated regulations, lottery tickets, cryptocurrency mining rigs, and current, exchangeable currency and postage may not be sold on Etsy. We also prohibit the sale of financial instruments such as stocks, bonds, and other securities. Handmade items containing any of these items in a usable condition are also not allowed. Collectible postage or currency that priced at less than 1,000 USD are allowed unless subject to legal or other restrictions. Collectible currency may not be offered as 'unsearched' or as a mixed lot of unknown contents."

 

NOTE also that if you were listing currency from less than 20 years ago as "handmade" or "vintage" anyone could have reported the items as deceptive and against the Terms of Use of Etsy.

There seem to be numerous coins at prices up to $50,000 so I don't understand why my coins were unlisted.  They are not in circulation.

YES!

You will see other sellers breaking the rules of Etsy (and the law) here.

Feel free to report those breaking the rules - your competitors may have done it to you.

What others get by with has no bearing on you. You were the one caught this time.
