Unkowen 1912 coin.

I belive it to be made of copper and to orginate in Europe but it could be a game token for all I know

Hi Trekkie, and welcome to the forum.

Close - it's bronze.

Dead on. It's a 2 heller of the pre-WW I Austro-Hungarian Empire, KM#2801 for Austria in the Standard Catalog of World Coins. There were 74,234,000 minted , listed in the SCWC at 15¢-$2 depending on condition.

It's very difficult to grade from pictures, especially dark copper, but I'd estimate yours at Fine, which is the lowest grade priced in the catalog.

 

cool thanks. Price was irrelevant just wanted to know what it was.

 

so glad i found this post

I found a coin just like the one in your picture and had no clue what it was, because there was no country of origin just the date and the 2. i'm glad i found this so i know where it came from.
