Morgana New Member United States 22 Posts	Posted 05/30/2025 4:01 pm My father carried this back from Australia in WWII and it sat in a box ever since (along with a 1915 Aussie Threepence, multiple coins from Dutch East Indies, and Japanese Occupation currency). It's certainly not in grading condition, but am wondering if it's worth anything more than melt price (with 92.5% silver). Thanks in advance for any feedback! Report this Post to the Staff

Don't say "infinitely" when you mean "very"; otherwise, you'll have no word left when you want to talk about something really infinite. - C. S. Lewis Report this Post to the Staff
