On the&nbsp; back is an eagle similiar to our old half dollar and the printed value&nbsp; is that of Dix Centimes. Back of the coin is worn and the front is in&nbsp; reasonably good shape with a scratch or two and or a small dent.&nbsp; Is&nbsp; there a value to this coin?</p><p><br /></p><p>Thank you for taking the time to answer</p><p><br /></p><p>Bob&quot;</p><p><br /></p><p><b>&quot;Answer</b></p><p>Hi Robert. The centime was a 100th of a Franc at the&nbsp; time. About 60 million of them were minted in 1854. Even in very good&nbsp; condition I am afraid they have minimal value. Your coin has no value&nbsp; other than that you own a piece of history of over 150 years old.&nbsp; Scratches and dents devalue any coin, especially very common ones.</p><p>Sorry about that.</p><p><br /></p><p>best wishes</p><p><br /></p><p>barry&quot;[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
