<p>[QUOTE=&quot;marbury518, post: 1109995, member: 24506&quot;]Hi Folks,</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>As my students know I&#039;m a coin man, one kindly soul gave a few old worthless coins from her garage. </p><p>I was just watching an auction in Spain on the net when I saw the same type of coin go for a four figure price. </p><p>No I&#039;m not excited yet as this coin has seen better days but it might be worth something rather than nothing. </p><p>I have read that the 1947 date with Franco on is not the date but the date the master die was made and that </p><p>there are key dates incuse stars on the reverse. I only have a glass with x10 mag .......</p><p>the number is there and it looks like one of the key dates 48 but is that key with a </p><p>19 in the previous star or does it have to be an E and also, if my coin ain&#039;t in great shape could it be worth something?</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>OK.....since then a damp cloth came out and its 49 not 48 but a less than great example with 49 in second star it bid up to 75Euro.so far...so sell </p><p>and split whatever I get with the student me thinks.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
