in picture #4, does it by any chance have a 10 on the reverse of the coin? because i have about 5 coins that look like that and i havent been able to find any info on them

 

yes just look'd at it, there is a 10 on it..so we dont know anything about it ?

 

we dont know anything about it, that is correct, except it is brownish and has a 10 on it

 

grate ! lol..

 

The 7th pic from the bottom, the 1912 nickel, could you post a pic of the back?

 

Do you mean the brown coin with the Japanese temple and Japanese script on it?

 

i posted a pic in the other post up in introductions

 

Pug and Mark....pic #4 is of a Japanese 10 Yen

 

10 yena, Japan.

 

beat me to it,

 

I have the coin right in the beginning, but..no help from me :c

 

The 1944 Phillipines is a US occupation coin that was minted in San Francisco.
It is a US coin for the most part. It was minted here with the intention of being used by a US territory.

The 1948 German 1/2 mark bill is similar in that it was printed during a time of pure occupation and meant to be replaced with more standard issue currency as a free Germany was set up and back on it's feet.

 

2nd, 3rd, and 4th pics are of South Korean coin/currency.
I have those, as well as one that looks very similar to the 1st coin, so I would guess Korea on that one as well.

 

The coin laying on the 1/2 Mark note is Austrian.
They were occupied by Germany in WWII, but IIRC, they were allowed by Hitler to retain their own coinage.
They did go through a period during and just after the war though where their coins went from silver and copper to cheaper aluminum.

The last pic is of Mexican money, which has since been revalued due to hyperinflation, so have no current face value. Purely collectible, value cannot be tied to the face, and even if they were still eligible for exchange, it would be for pennies on the 'dollar', so to speak.

 

Really?
Cool... I stand corrected.
My father was stationed in Korea a few times while he served, and brought back coin and currency he said was Korean... and #4 was among them, so that is what I always thought it was.
I guess you guys that said Japan know far better than I, so I will take your word on it.

I am far better with the European coins vs Asian.

 

When Mexico revalued their currency, it was 1,000 to 1. So the 5 peso note would be worth one-half of a centavo, which is at a present exchange rate of 12.10 pesos per US dollar would be worth 0.04¢ (4/100 of one US penny).

However, that note looks very old. My (cheap) book of Mexico bank notes goes back only to 1925, and it is sometimes incomplete in newer bills than 1925. But older notes in good condition are usually worth more than their face value.

What is the date on that note?

 

looks to be 1915 ?











and i just would like to thank you all for the welth of info you guys have given me ! and i have lots more to show you ! lol..

 

pug, i looked up our 10 yen coins on ebay, and its pretty safe to say that its worth about a dollar and i have 4 so thats good for me

 

hay thats cool !
