288 YEAR OLD COIN & More FOUND In Half Pound World Coin Hunt - Bag #9

[@RobFindsTreasure]

Great lot! That 1730 British Half Penny is sweet!

[@TreasureTownCoins]

I was pumped to find it! Now my oldest coin!

[@Wingnuthas]

i have a king george the 2nd 1729

[@joshuanewbould7956]

The 20 pence coin is still circulating in the uk

[@TreasureTownCoins]

Good to know.. thanks Joshua!

[@t.b.willoughby6540]

# 0:49 German Occupied Belgium (Zinc 25 Centimes). #1:04 "FAO" Issue (KM #52) 1¢Jamaica. #1:52 Yes, 20P coins still circulate in Britain. #2:28 Wooden Nickels are fun! Mostly fund raiser tokens, but some are like "Store Cards" (Advertising gimmicks). My first "Woody" was for a 25¢ slice of pizza at the community college I was at in 1968😋. #4:34 The 3 Crowns signify Sweden (A neutral country in WW II). #5:15 Mexican Inflation = WORTHLESS & OBSOLETE. #7:09 "Para" In Cyrillic looks like "NAPA" (Yugoslavian "Cent"). #9:32 One of the Greek Philosophers who "discovered" the atom (I think). #10:13 France no longer uses the Franc, those coins are no longer redeemable for Euros. #11:05 King George II of Britain (Pre "Revolutionary War" coin).

[@TreasureTownCoins]

Thank you very much!

[@TreasureTownCoins]

And cool story on your first wooden 'nickel'

[@azharparuk3121]

Not Jordanian.i think its Egyptian and has the tughra, which is the signature of Mahmud Han bin Abdul Hamid muzzaffer daima. Also it's about 120 years old

[@silvercoinedge8228]

The 2 pence, the 20 pence and the 5 pence peices are all still circulating in the UK. The "big old chunky" 50p peices where withdrawn from circulation in 1997 and replaced with a smaller version. In theory you can still bank the old ones, but they are now considered to be collectors items. When the 50p coin was first introduced in 1969, it had the highest buying power of any regular circulation coin in the world. A whopping £8.50 in today's money. It was a substantially sized coin as a result. The 50p shape has been copied worldwide, because its so hard to fake it if you ain't the mint.

[@TreasureTownCoins]

Wow! That's cool to know!

[@notmyhandleeeeeeeeeeeees77777]

Great find with the Halfpenny! Could be worth a little bit? I don't know much about grading, so here's a price guide. The 20p is still in circulation. 1982 was the first year of issue, though they are still very common. This design was used until 2008, after which they switched to the shield design.

[@TreasureTownCoins]

Thanks for the valuable comment, information, and link Tony. My best guess is the coin is worth around $15 or $20, which is pretty good for being free! I told my boss that there were some decent coins in there (and if anything was like $200 I'd give it back) but he's super cool for letting me have some as a reward for working for him in the coin shop.

[@francisperez221]

Where did you buy a grab bag am from Phil. And howuch it cost

[@dataexpunged2827]

1:49 they do circulate and I’ve accumulated about ten of them

[@_WooWho]

That 200-peso Mexican coin from 1985 was the old peso, before they revalued their currency in 1993. When it was revalued, the rate of exchange was 1000 old pesos to 1 new peso. (The new peso was actually a designation; it's why on some early '90s 1 peso coins you see N$1--the N stood for Nuevo. I think the Nuevo was dropped in 1994.) So your coin these days is worth about MX$0.20.

[@TreasureTownCoins]

Thanks! That makes a lot more sense.

[@Guraniloth]

The 5 öre from 1937 is from Swedien. Went out of commission in 1984 if I remember my Swedish coins correctly :)

[@TreasureTownCoins]

Oh wow! So could you theoretically exchange at a bank or are you out of luck? Thanks for the info Guraniloth!

[@Guraniloth]

Treasure Town Sadly no... Copper scrap.... The denomination us in today's money about 3,5 cents usd. That particular coin and year is about 15-20$ in mint condition.

[@thecanadiannumismatist]

You can recognize Swedish coins easily, they will almost always have the Three Crowns, or Tre Kronor, on them somewhere. Three crowns is a national symbol of Sweden.

[@thaitom6410]

10:18 -- Not Jordanian, but from the Ottoman Empire; probably a low piaster denomination.

[@cointelligence101]

WHAT!!? 1730 that is awesome!!! Sweet lot

[@TreasureTownCoins]

Pretty awesome right? I'm worried that as the lots are getting better the next ones will be very underwhelming... at this rate I'll be finding gold by Bag #15 haha

[@borisbuliak3626]

Un cuarto is a quarter in Spanish for the Panamanian Baboa.

[@Rodogg7787]

When I was a kid (years ago) there was a Wooden Nickel here in the town I lived in, I think they gave them out & you'd return it to the wooden nickel and get a free meal or something like that?

[@JakeYardley]

The 20p is still circulating over here in england

[@TreasureTownCoins]

I should save up and trade them with an English friend!

[@JakeYardley]

Could do especially if you find a dateless one

[@moessilverorenot4834]

The one coin u thought was Jordanian is an Egyptian 1 piaster 1907 and following coin was a 10 fils Kuwaiti

[@Mohamed.Fathalla6969]

The coin you said you think it is Joradanian is Egyptian was minted in the 19th century m it is very valuable in good condition

[@ShellyMay28]

Where do you get your coins from? I think they are cool. 🙂 I love your vids by the way. 😁

[@TreasureTownCoins]

Thanks! Bought them from a wide variety of sources and mixed them together! Appreciate the compliment..

[@luizh.colecoes5667]

Nice coins! I'm Brazilian and I also collect coins of the world too. This British coin is incredible. I have a Brazilian coin of the same year, 1730, my oldest coin. Coincidence surprising!

[@TreasureTownCoins]

That's really cool, Luiz! Quick question -- what is the most valuable Brazilian coin?

[@luizh.colecoes5667]

@@TreasureTownCoins The rarest and valuable coin in Brazil is known as "Peça da Coroação" in Portuguese or "Pattern Strike" in English. It is a gold coin of 6,400 réis (currency at the time) fair in 1822, the year of the independence of Brazil, created by Emperor Dom Pedro I, who declared independence against Portugal. There are only 16 coins in existence. In a rare auction, it reached nearly $ 500,000.

[@Chairman7777]

The coin that you sayed from jordan is from ottoman empire and silver

[@TreasureTownCoins]

It's silver?? I had no idea!! I'll have to go a pick it out. What date was it?

[@petar7794]

[@TreasureTownCoins]

I bought them from a dealer.

[@zoomerpanda3215]

I'm glad I get recommend this stuff

[@TreasureTownCoins]

Awesome!

[@rustynail8925]

That half penny is 1739 , its a pitty it isn't a 1730 though because theirs 2 virants , 1 with GEORGVIS +1 with GEOGVIS , the latter is worth a pritty penny as they say ! If you want a realy good site for British coins serch (VALUE OF COINS OF THE UK) and look for the name Tony clayton ! By the way you need to check if you still have that 1943 french 1 franc their's 2 virants ,1 with an axe on it ,the other doesn't , it's the one that doesn't thats worth something, they were minted for french colony's in north africa during the 2nd world war , very low mintage !

[@TreasureTownCoins]

I will. Thanks for all the info - good to know exactly what I had, though.

[@jameskruczek9635]

the coin with the arabic words is from Egypt (KM#306) minted 1910 a one Qirsh ,the 1730 English half penny is worth about $6 or $7 in VG

[@TreasureTownCoins]

Thanks for the information James, I appreciate it!

[@VeteranStacker]

What does km#306 refer to? Thanks

[@roybrooks268]

That is from when Egypt was part of the Ottoman Empire.

[@Luke-hq5zd]

The 1730 British coin is pretty valuable

[@TreasureTownCoins]

I think so! Not bank breaking, but definitely a few bucks!

[@PessiIsPinished]

It isn't very valuable

[@axelgamer12yt17]
