<p>[QUOTE=&quot;satootoko, post: 43924, member: 669&quot;]Welcome to the forum dario.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Coin values are so much influenced by their condition that a picture is really necessary to even begin estimating. Late 19th Century Austrian coins are valued in the range of several for a dollar in a dealer &quot;junk box&quot;, to thousands of dollars.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>A coin can frequently be identified without seeing it, but a description of the size, probable metallic compositon, indication of denomination, and date are needed. The inscription you describe doesn&#039;t exactly match anything I have found in the 19th Century volume of the Standard Catalog of World Coins, and the &quot;EX IMPERIVM&quot; part is rather odd. Starting with the Emperor&#039;s name and reading clockwise around the rim, the first part of the inscription translates as &quot;Franz Joseph I, by the Grace of God Emperor and&quot;, and ends with the country name. The date at the bottom is a separate design element from the legend.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
