I would like to know the silver content of coins in general cause a lot of mine are bad condition and I'm wondering if I'd be better selling them for scrap. Old Irish florins up to the sixties. Victorian florins and fourpence etc. Any ideas.
So I take it mine is just a Jerome then. I thought for a minute I had found something a bit special. Oh well I'm sure ill find something else in the box. Many thanks.
I wonder how many people pressed the 'enlage' button! Was there a coin there? I must have missed it, better have another look I have uploaded a video to you tube hope this helps . Thanks for all the input its very much appreciated.My link
Mine is different from that it has a man's head on it rather than an eagle. I tried to upload photos but it said they were too large. I will try again tonite after work. It's the best conditioned coin of all the ones in the box and there are around 200 in there. Thank you very much for your replys so far. I really apreciate it.
Ive inhereted a box of coins from my late father and i have found google very helpful identifying the majority but i have many that i cant really find any info for. 1 in particular is a small copper coin with Friedrich v schiller .. On the other side it says ZUM 100 JAHRIGEN GEBURTSFEST AM 10 NOV 1859. I cant find any info about it. Any help would be great thanks. Having trouble uploading pics. will try again.
