Hello
Of course, it is the 5 Centimos of Spain.
Its number is KM#662 and its value, without seeing the image, is probably of 0$.
These coins of the Provisional Government, are very common in a low quality, on the contrary, if they are in perfect state, its value is very high.
With this series of coins, 1, 2, 5 and 10 Centimos "Hundredth" plus those silver 50 Ct, 1, 2 and 5 Pesetas, Was implanted in Spain the decimal system and the monetary unit of the Peseta.
The translation of the legend is the following:

CINCO GRAMOS = FIVE GRAMS

DOSCIENTAS PIEZAS EN KILOG. = TWO HUNDRED PIECES FOR KILOGRAM

CINCO CENTIMOS = FIVE CENTS

Then, if you have 200 pieces like that, y'll one kilogram of copper.

Hello
For fine 1,5$ is OK, well, for me it's a low price, for Fine maybe 10$ is better.

But, usually, the grading for this coins is Poor, then, the price down.
Really, on the spanish market, this kind of coins aren't considered.

Regards Joan
