HippieOutcast Pillar of the Community United States 615 Posts	Posted 03/12/2008 01:26 am Unless I'm mistaken, it is an 1870 Belgium 2 centimes coin. Not too sure about value, but a nice find nonetheless! Edited by HippieOutcast 03/12/2008 01:27 am Report this Post to the Staff

snowman Pillar of the Community United States 1840 Posts	Posted 03/12/2008 06:37 am You probably could have bought a beer for 2 cents in 1870. According to Krause the value is 25 cents in F and $1 in VF. Report this Post to the Staff
akglen Valued Member United States 170 Posts	Posted 03/12/2008 11:12 am Any idea of the grade? I only ask because if it's not a high enough grade then the value has not even kept up with inflation over the years. Only kidding! I appreciate all the help and am pleasantly surprised by how quickly you recognize the coin. Glen Report this Post to the Staff
