Is there a market for wormhole coordinates? Explorer Corporations, single to small groups of explorers, etc. looking for new wormholes to explore. Is there a way to sell coordinates on the market or through contracts or anyway other way for people looking to sell or looking to explore?

There is potential but i wouldn't think too much.
You can book mark the location then drag the bookmark from your bookmarks list into your cargohold and it becomes an item you can trade.
The problems i think you will encounter are that the wormholes expire so there is no way as a buyer to know the WH will still be there or if there was a WH to begin with.
You could give it a go though as there isn't much apart from contract fee's you can lose

Not that I've ever heard of.
Though if you find any class 1 or 3 with pulsars in 'em let me know, and I might be able to get you a finder's fee.

What exactly would those pulsars look like...there were some interesting things on the other side of the one we found.

Any reason why you wouldn't want a Class 2?

That's an odd request

I've considered doing this with c5/c6 chains, but there are a lot of roadblocks.
1: Trust. There's no way to know the bookmarks are real until you get there. There's no way to know if there's a gank squad waiting on the other side until you jump in. There's no way to know if a team is waiting to jump you during a site until it shows up on directional.
2: Wormhole stability. You only get a clue about wormholes timing out when they get under ~3h or so. You could end up buying a location that is timing out by the time you get the ships there.
3: Third party intervention. Even if you get a legit wormhole chain that remains stable for the op, maybe someone else that didn't pay for it found it too. Then you have to deal with them.
If you can find someone to work with regularly, and can build some trust, then there may be a way to sell coordinates. Probably not on a public market, though.

im sure this has been said before - but ill repeat..
I doubt anyone with common sense will buy them (some fools will tho)
anyone who can actually use a wh bookmark already has by default the scanning skills required to find wormholes, so why would they buy it?
I do rember tho the first wek of wormholes and sooooo many lost player petitioning "oh im stuck"
like, WTF did you think would happen?
