foreign coins are not worth much unless gold ,silver or extremely rare or unique, in some markets.

 

ok

 

Thank you, Mr. Know-it-all.

 

i have a (us: 5 cent 91921g)

 

That is perhaps the most redicilous statement I have ever read in my life. I just have to do this ! LOL !

 

hi please post better picture in order to get better idea of what we need, up close shots

 

it depends on who you talk to... and the buyers interest...

 

Just a thought

Greetings inherit I too inherited a bunch years back and was in same boat. I think a previous poster was correct in saying they are worth what someone is willing to pay. In that light what I do is go on ebay and search for coin once list shows up on left click on completed listings and a list of unsold and sold coins shows up with that list you can get an idea by comparing your coin to similar sold coins Best Regards Stephen

 

to me most foreign coins are worthless.. so .. like i said depends on content and desire..

 

I would have been a different statment if you said the " to me " part.

 

i also have american steel nickles and pennys and indian cent.

 

The US has never produced steel nickels. Perhaps you are talking about War Nickels (1942-1945) that are 35% silver.

 

Right, most world coins are worthless to people that don't collect them. Much like how U.S. coins are worthless to people that don't collect them.

 

has anyone heard of a( us: 3 cent piece or and indian cent piece i have both and would like to know more.

 

I was the executor of my fathers estate. Learning the value of the coins takes some research.

Some people will say that whatever you have is worthless, mainly because they do not want it, but those people do not know what everyone wants.

I would say, stick around here for a little while, learn some things, and you will have a better idea of what is what.

 

ok thanks chip

 

The best thing you can do is buy a Red Book or other numisatic books or even google what you are asking here. Not trying to sound mean it's just sometimes easier and faster to google something then to wait for someone to respond.

Yes I have heard what you are asking and until you get into specifics i.e. condition, date, or even have a picture then we cant really help.

 

ok shoewrecky
