NumisRob Bedrock of the Community United Kingdom 17926 Posts	Posted 12/02/2022 09:36 am Hello and It's a slightly scarcer date with a mintage figure of 1,600,000. My latest French coin catalogue values it at €10 in VG. (I think that valuation is rather optimistic - I reckon €2 to €3 would be more realistic). I think your coin has been damaged since it left the mint. Coupled with the heavy wear, I'm afraid it's the sort of coin most dealers would consign to their junk trays - I've seen similar coins in my local coin dealer's '10 coins for £1' tray.

erafjel Pillar of the Community Sweden 2124 Posts	Posted 12/02/2022 10:19 am with NumisRob. At most a couple of euros value. I suppose it is theoretically possible with a mint error like that, but with the machinery used at the time this coin was minted it is highely unlikely. It seems much more plausible that it has been clipped after it left the mint. The amount of wear makes it hard to rule out the post mint damage explanation, so I see no premium for that.

moatasemsoliman New Member Egypt 6 Posts	Posted 12/02/2022 12:15 pm Thank you all for valuable information I bought it for 40 EGP which is 1.55 euros so I wanted to make sure that it wasn't a fraud as 40 egp is alot for a junk coin regarding my local currency status. Anyways the only reason to buy it is the date, it was fascinating to see a 140 years old coin with all stories that it might held in its its history. Away from valuable collectables I really appreciate that old vibe held with in that piece of metal. Report this Post to the Staff
