    This was in a roll of cents from the bank. Not in bad shape for being one hundred eight years old. Thought I'd share 1912fullrev.jpg 1912fullobverse.jpg

    Very cool and nice find.

    NGC World Price Guide lists this as a KM-76, with inscriptions in French. There is also a KM-77 with Dutch lettering.

    Your French-inscribed Belgian coin looks to be AU-58 and is worth about $6.50 or so USD. The Dutch-inscribed KM-77 was only minted in 1912 and, in the same condition, is valued less, AU58/$3.00 or so. Your coin was made for 3 years, 1912-14.

    The denomination is centime.
