smithersjones Valued Member United Kingdom 76 Posts	Posted 01/12/2010 09:26 am Hello all, Could someone please help identify and if possible place a value on this coin please? Bronze in colour, weight and size just slightly smaller than an Australian Half Penny (pre-decimal). On the front: MUNT VAN CURACAO and the date of 1944, this is surrounding what appears to be a lion holding a sword within a sheild? On the rear: 21/2 CENT Surrounded by a wreath? Any help appreciated cheers Identified - moved to World Coins forum - Sap Report this Post to the Staff

Mintage 1 million. CV $1 in Fine. 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.
