drowning Valued Member Australia 66 Posts	Posted 04/29/2021 04:42 am I've come across a 1950 French 50 Franc Coin while noodling through a huge pile of world coins. Could anyone help out with grading please? Report this Post to the Staff

NumisRob Bedrock of the Community United Kingdom 18011 Posts	Posted 04/29/2021 08:17 am Great find! I've been searching through lots of World coins for years and never found a 1950 50F! In France they would grade this as TB. My Trade List: https://goccf.com/t/194596 My Wants List: https://goccf.com/t/191710 Report this Post to the Staff
tdziemia Pillar of the Community United States 7965 Posts	Posted 04/29/2021 08:21 am @drowning, that is quite a find! I could not find a recent sale of your coin, but this example sold at 70 pounds in 2014 https://www.acsearch.info/search.html?id=4007402 and this one the same year for 110 eu https://www.acsearch.info/search.html?id=4005907 Even though yours appears more worn than either of these, it has not been cleaned and might have collector appeal comparable to those.

drowning Valued Member Australia 66 Posts	Posted 04/29/2021 09:14 am Awesome! Thanks guys. I got really lucky with this batch of coins, 1877 Japanese Sen, 1944 Philippines War Liberation 5 Centavos, this 1950 French 50 Franc, and I'm still only half way through noodling the pile! Noodling is so much fun :D Report this Post to the Staff
