    Not bad. French coin minted in Lille. 20 bux on ebay probably. Whatta you mean you uncovered it?

    Well, I don't plan on selling it on ebay or anywhere else for that matter. They mean more to me on a personal level. When I say I 'uncovered' it, that is just a term I use for pulling the coin out of a box and unwrapping it. I was left a pretty good size box of coins and a few bills of varying ages. I am going through them one at a time and researching them. I just joined CT for help when needed.

    Www.numista.com this site is invaluable for world coins. It even has an advanced search engine for when you only have things like diameter or date.
