Question
hi Dmitry i found this coin and i can not found any think about it or its value any where could you please help thanks

Answer
Hi Dan,
You have a 10 rappen coin from Switzerland. This is a fairly common date, the value for which ranges from less than a dollar for a used coin to between $5 and $10 for one in mint condition.
These coins were actually spendable legal tender up until 2004.
Thanks for the question! =)

Expertise

My specialty is world coins from the 18th to 20th centuries, primarily non-US foreign coins and related areas such as errors and exonumia (tokens, medals, etc.). I can answer questions relating to identification, grading, selling, preservation and evaluation of such items. In addition to catalog value, I can give you the practical market value and trends for specific types of coins. I will also take questions regarding counterfeits (both modern and antique) and on how to identify them. I am NOT knowledgeable in paper money/banknotes, ancient or "shipwreck" coins. Thank you.

Experience

Collector of world coins since early childhood. Access to a variety of auction records and reference material. You can also find me on Facebook.
