Question
Coin made in 1923,the number 1 on the front with a woman holding one hand to her brow %26 holding a wheat sheaf in the other arm %26 a lion on the back. Is this coin worth anything?

Answer
Hi Jeff, There were 15.4 million minted of these copper-nickel Czech 1 Koruna coins that year.
Collector value may be worth about .20 with heavy wear to around .50 with moderate wear to maybe .75 with light wear.
World coin pictures and some values may be found here: http://worldcoingallery.com/index.htm ,

You might also try a library for a copy of the Standard Catalog of World Coins for pictures, values and lots more interesting info.
