accordselux Valued Member United States 154 Posts	Posted 08/02/2015 10:42 pm Oh, no, he's definitely on there. Kind of hard to miss that bald look of superiority. http://www.ngccoin.com/price-guide/...-duid-341472 OP, check the condition on it, and then search the "sold" auctions to see what similar prices have been paid. That would be the best reference. Report this Post to the Staff
thai-vic Pillar of the Community Thailand 1509 Posts	Posted 08/03/2015 03:46 am Was that a contemporary circulating issue? Not listed in the Krause catalog. I couldn't see Mussolini indulging himself with silver plated coins in 1945. He would have had a few more important things on his mind. Report this Post to the Staff
kbo329 New Member United States 3 Posts	Posted 08/03/2015 07:39 am Thank you all so far for your responses.... I apologize,the coin is dated 1943, Not 1945....Here is the link for the Mussolini coin I have...I found it on NGC Website...http://www.ngccoin.com/price-guide/...-duid-339918 ...It says the value is $35.00 MS-63 and says that the coin is Silver, but don't say how much Silver content is in it....One seller on ebay was only selling this coin for only about $12.00, but I am leery as I wanted to know the Silver content of it....Any help would be greatly appreciated...Thank you friends!

thai-vic Pillar of the Community Thailand 1509 Posts	Posted 08/03/2015 08:17 am They are fantasy coins. Produced post-1945 (presumably for the die-hard fascists). The 1945 version states the date of his death (28-04). There are similar post-war 'coins' that feature Adolf Hitler. Because they were not circulation coins I could not envisage buying any of them for my own collection. Report this Post to the Staff
