<p>[QUOTE=&quot;rick, post: 53193, member: 1235&quot;]Hello jervous!&nbsp; welcome to the forum, and welcome to the hobby!</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>someone told you that pre 64 coins have value, because in after 64 most denominations were no longer minted in &#039;coin silver&#039;, which is 90% silver.&nbsp; Now the value depends on many things, all of which depend on what you have.&nbsp; Certain dates are more desirable than others, and better condition carries a higher value - worn coins from average circulation, and common dates, carry &#039;bullion value&#039;, which is the value of the silver contained in the coin, but probably will not carry more of a premium than that.&nbsp; Now, this would not be true, if you had a particularly rare coin, or one in exceptional condition.&nbsp; If you give a little more information about it, such as date or, if at all possible, an image of the coin you could post, the members here can help out a lot more.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>As for your egyptian coin - do you mean 10 piastres?&nbsp; Krause lists that coin, from 1992 which shows a mosque with three towers on the reverse, as being worth 2.50 in uncirculated condition - if yours has evidence of circulation, it wouldn&#039;t hold much value, but is still a neat place to start your hobby - it looks like a beautiful coin.&nbsp; It is copper-nickel, and the Krause # is 733.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
