traevin Pillar of the Community United States 1454 Posts	Posted 08/14/2009 11:01 am I'm not sure why but I can't find any listing for the Marshall Islands in the Standard Catalog of World Coins (any ideas why not?) so I'm turning to you fine coin experts (notice the flattery yet?) for aid. If at all possible, I'd like to know the price, silver content and size. And thanks in advance. Here's the coin below. It's a 1994 Marshall Islands $50 silver coin.

Rdwarrior Valued Member United States 266 Posts	Posted 08/14/2009 11:31 am Oops, spoke too quickly, The 50$ ones look like they should be 1 troy ounce silver, prob worth atleast bullion value. Report this Post to the Staff
bart Pillar of the Community Belgium 651 Posts	Posted 08/14/2009 1:18 pm This is (or was) Marshall Islands 50 dollars KM#154, containing 1 ounce of 0.9990 silver. The coins of the Marshall Islands used to be listed in the Standard Catalog of World Coins. After problems of redeeming those coins at the Central Bank of the Islands, the coins of the Marshall Islands are considered no longer legal tender. I think they're now listed in the Unusual World Coins catalog. About the redemption of Marshall Islands Coins I found this article : http://www.coinbooks.org/esylum_v09n18a24.html Report this Post to the Staff

traevin Pillar of the Community United States 1454 Posts	Posted 08/14/2009 6:03 pm Thanks Bart. You're a godsend! My fiance loves this coin so I wanted to make sure I wasn't overbidding on it by too much. So knowing a base value, even if it's a little outdated, is very helpful. Jen Report this Post to the Staff
