[QUOTE="satootoko, post: 153146, member: 669"]Hi Joanne, and [img]http://www.cosgan.de/images/more/schilder/142.gif[/img] to Cointalk. Since the value of world coins ranges between <1 cent and >$1-million, there is no way to answer your question without a great deal more information on what you have. [img]http://boards.collectors-society.com/images//graemlins/confused-smiley-013.gif[/img] Uncirculated coins are always worth more than circulated versions of the same coin, but age is not a reliable indicator, as there are "junk" coins from the Roman Empire and valuable coins from the last decade. Gold coins are generally, but nowhere near always, more valuable than silver, and so on through the descending bullion value of the coinage metal, but sometimes the presence (or absence) of a particular mint mark can multiply a coin's value many times over the same one from a different mint, regardless of the metallic composition. Many coins from the latter part of the 20th Century are essentially worthless, as millions and millions of them were taken out of circulation when the Euros arrived. :eek: Howver, there are probably a few that would make some collectors' hearts race. :D[/QUOTE]
