I don't know if its silver but it looks Japanese? ....a 20 Sen piece from which year? Edited by NumisMattyUk 10/12/2007 10:59 pm Report this Post to the Staff

GO Moderator United States 6563 Posts	Posted 10/12/2007 11:30 pm Geez I have always been bad at the Jap coins. It's between 1901-1905. Book value is about $20.00 in XF. And if it's a 1901 then book value in XF is $350 .80 Silver .1382 oz ASW *************** 1905 Edited by GO 10/12/2007 11:35 pm Report this Post to the Staff

Sap Moderator Australia 16850 Posts	Posted 10/13/2007 12:34 am The date on it is Year 26 of the Meiji Emperor - corresponding to 1893 AD. I'd call it gVF. CV $15 in VF, $25 in EF according to the 4th edition (2004) 19th century Krause. 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. Lewis Report this Post to the Staff

Will be getting lots of dosh soon...to buy or not to buy... Edited by NumisMattyUk 10/15/2007 09:48 am Report this Post to the Staff
GO Moderator United States 6563 Posts	Posted 10/15/2007 8:34 pm I'd stick with the books. It's easily accessible like a phone book. The cost is a LOT more but having it at your fingertips is worth it I think. Report this Post to the Staff
