[QUOTE="Ian, post: 6195, member: 283"]Hello, Your coin (according to the image you have posted) is dated 1854 and was minted in Paris (the `A' under the eagle being the mint mark of Paris). In it's condition (good fine) I would say that it has a value of between £1 - £2 to a collector of these pieces. If it had been an 1861A, the value would have been closer to £5. In financial terms....nothing to write home about. As a conversation piece, well it's a nice piece of history but they are fairly common, especially in UK where for a very brief period of time, due to a shortage of coinage, they actually did circulate. Keep it. Ian (also Scotland)[/QUOTE]
