[QUOTE="cmezner, post: 3713182, member: 87809"]They are actually called "tokens" and not coins :oops: Two different series of Caciques de Venezuela were minted; one series was minted in Switzerland in 1957, weight is aprox. 6 g and on the reverse there is the legend INTER-CHANGE BANK SUIZA 1957 like this one: [URL]https://en.numista.com/catalogue/pieces56479.html[/URL] The other series was minted in Caracas as one can see from the legend ACUÑADA EN CARACAS, n.d., weight is aprox. 1.6 g like this one: [URL]https://en.numista.com/catalogue/pieces70331.html[/URL] Don't know where the eBay seller got the date 1962 'cause the tokens are not dated. Their value (of the tokens) seems to be bullion value, e.g. [URL]https://www.emuenzen.de/forum/threads/goldmuenzen-aus-venezuela.55040/[/URL] One has to add the gold value and craftsmanship of the pendant to have an estimate of the price.[/QUOTE]
