appleboy2 New Member United States 1 Posts	Posted 07/18/2013 3:37 pm Hi, I found this coin sitting on the ground and have no clue how much it is worth if I were to sell it. Could any of the coin experts here give me some info? Sorry about the bad photo quality, at the top of the coin on the front it says "Remember the Alamo 1836" and on the back it says "The Alamo Siege and Battle February 23 - March 6, 1836".

nickelsearcher Moderator United States 15463 Posts	Posted 07/18/2013 7:06 pm appleboy2 What you have is not a coin per say ... that is it was not issued by any government mint with denomination as legal tender. As suggested above ... this is a souvenir medal issued by a private company to celebrate the specific event noted on the medal. Some medals are collectable and worthy of a premium ... others are not depending on supply and demand. If you truly want to estimate it's value then search ebay for completed auctions of the same issue. David Take a look at my other hobby ... http://www.jk-dk.art Report this Post to the Staff
Circus Pillar of the Community United States 3079 Posts	Posted 07/18/2013 8:40 pm As been said it is a souvenir token, one of a number of styles. Depending on whether it is sold by the attraction it self or one of the surrounding gift shops. As with all the items on ebay. The price is all over the map for this kind of item. Mostly based on what somebody is will to pay. They can be found in the bargain treasure bins at the LCS or one like it. Report this Post to the Staff
