Hey there...

I am getting back into coin collecting, and am going through an old jar I have old a bunch of international coins and found the following Belgium coins (they say "Belgie" on the back):

5 Francs: 1949 x 2, 1962, 1964, 1967, 1968 (well circulated)
1 Franc: 1952 (well circulated)

No idea if any of these are worth anything, or if perhaps there may be some 'silver' in any of them.

Need to decide if I should cash them in, and if so, what they could be worth. Or, if they are worth 'saving'.

Thanks so much.

Michael

Unfortunately, your coins have no silver in them. The larger 20, 50, and 100 Francs have silver. You can learn about them here...

OK.. Thanks so much for letting me know.

Was hoping because of the age, but guess no luck..

Will probably just save them for the grand-kids to play with one day...
