Let us know what yours is - most likely "A" for Vienna. Quote: 1856 cino centimes (most likely) France, 5 centimes, 1856 http://en.numista.com/catalogue/pieces485.html Again, this is a coin with many different mint-marks. Quote: 1880 "2 bani" Romania Romania, 2 bani, 1880 http://en.numista.com/catalogue/pieces20837.html This coin is fairly rare. Quote: 1950 "5 pfennic" Two options: German Federal Republic (West Germany), 5 pfennig, 1950 http://en.numista.com/catalogue/pieces658.html German Democratic Republic (East Germany), 5 pfennig, 1950 http://en.numista.com/catalogue/pieces3022.html Quote: 1897 "2 centesimi" Italy, 2 centesimi, 1897 http://en.numista.com/catalogue/pieces5955.html Now for the ones that I'd need pictures for... Quote: 1870 cinco romos? No idea what this could be. Quote: 1860 aeheka This is probably not a unit of currency. However, I am thinking maybe you misread something in Greek (Î›Î•Î Î¤ÎŸÎ [Lepton] or APAXMÎ— [Drachma] are both Greek units of currency that look like they begin with the letter "A").
