Help French Indochine

I came across this Indochine 1940 10 cents coins. I have no idea of the grade or value or even what to do with it. I am new to this and need some assistance.


Thanks,
Sandy

One of the pieces from that horde eh? I don't know much about Indochina coins however I think it may be silver. Wait for others to give feedback.

 

it's nickel, not silver. km#21.1, and my outdated (2006) krause lists it at $2 in xf, $8 unc. someone may have an updated value.

 

swish, those values are accurate in my 2011.

 

IMO this coin is in very nice shape.
Much better than XF, but maybe shy of BU (unc)

 

Yes one of the many pieces of coin.
Thanks for the replies. I will put it in the I don't know what to do with it box.

Extra Fine - Uncirculated.

 

Vietnam, Laos, & Cambodia were French Indo China. You have a very nice type example coin for that country. I believe the grade is "about uncirculated" between EF and UNC which is what others have said. It is not made of silver but it is a nice high grade example worth a couple dollars.

The 1940 dated coins are made of Nickel. Your coin should be slightly attrracted to a magnet. Other dates of this type are made of coper-nickel and are not magnetic.

 

i sould say VF to EF.

 

It's a very beautiful coin, with a very pretty design.
