<p>[QUOTE="DJP7x0s, post: 1672361, member: 5336"]I would like to ask for some help with a few foreign coins I have. These are way beyond my area of expertise and I have found very little info on these. The Straits Settlement 20 Cent Piece, Ive only found two other examples. One sold on Heritage for $1260 in 2008, and it says that the owner has a pending offer of $1550. The second example is on ebay, the seller is asking $1500, but the coin has not sold. Mine is in similar condition, but is not blast white, mine is toned and origional. My pictures are of poor quality. I just developed a new method of taking pictures that works really well with copper coins. I am still working on getting a better picture of silver though. So bear with me and keep in mind the details are not as crisp as they are on the actual coin, but its close and enough to give you a good idea of what I have. Any info would be greatly appreciated. And I am trying to sell these coins, so an estimate of a fair value would be a huge help to me. </p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://i222.photobucket.com/albums/dd202/DJP7x0s/1CA4AA33-7596-4936-AA2C-A57BE1EEBF87-2800-000002CD6B2671A5.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><img src="http://i222.photobucket.com/albums/dd202/DJP7x0s/6EAEEA6C-8147-42C2-87FE-E4726327FCB8-2800-000002CD73F28A04.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>This one here, I have found examples with the A mint mark.
