Singapore Twenty Cents

Do you have a coin from Singapore and want to know its value? Leave a comment/question and I will do my best to find out the price and history for you.

I've never been to Singapore and probably couldn't find it on a blank map but every few years I get change from this country.

Singapore coins pre-1985 were all about the fish, scorpion fish to swordfish to seahorses. Then in 1985 they switched to flower designs. I'm not exactly sure why but I suspect it has to due with overfishing, land reclamation, and pollution. They have a good forest program and can always keep plants alive even in small numbers.

The obverse has Singapore's national arms with a lion and a tiger, although lions are not native it symbolizes the old guard. A ribbon that says "Majulah Singapura",or "Onward Singapore" in Malay. Singapore is written in all four official languages, Malay, Chinese, English, and Tamil.

On the reverse is a native powder puff plant that would be pink and all fluffy in real life.

In 2003 Singapore joined a long list of countries that stopped issuing one cent and five cents coins. This is a main reason most of my Singapore finds have been ten cents or higher.

Here's the stats for this coin...
Type/Country: 20 Cents / Singapore
Year: 1993
Mintage: 24,998,000
Metal: Copper-Nickel
Value: $0.15 in VF

Passes as a nickel although slightly lighter and little wider.

standard price for a walking libery half dollar (1937-1948) Outer most detail gone but past the face and breasts the detail is almost perfect on some and the eagle still has it's feathers said and the detail on the lessar ones is only slightly less. no discernible mintmark. What is the mintmark for them by the way? and in addition what is the price of a 1964 kennedy in vg+/fine and the standard price of a good condition ben franklin and the standard price of a vg and same with a fin ben franklin. thnx for your help man it's for my aunt's hoard.

--Sounds very-fine about $15.00 each

What is the mintmark for them by the way?
--Blank, D, or S located on the reverse close to the rim under UNUM near HALF.

1964 kennedy in vg+/fine
--About $10.00

standard price of a good condition ben franklin and the standard price of a vg and same with a fin ben franklin
--Both about $10.00

My aunt has a stash of Waling Liberty half dollars from 1937 on I was wondering a few things. Were is the mint mark? and what is the condition of the coins given that on the front the lady liberty has only the topmost sections of the portrait (the face & middle of the torso) worn and the rest of the detail is very good and on most you can still see all the detail on the dress outside the legs and on the reverse there is minimal to almost no wear on the eagle to the point that you can see all the feathers and on some you can see the detail on the feathers. What are the values on these coins? I realize that it will vary but if you could just give me the best estimate you can it would be awesome!

1903 2 cent piece, it has a double eagle/dragon/phoenix on the back ( I am not sure) It kind of looks like the austrian crest. there is no nationality printed on it.

on the mystery coin it has tiny dots just beside the rim on both sides and some kind of branch with leaves and berries on it beneath the two which has a very decorative design around it, kind of like an old mirror frame.

Image description is good, but I need words or an actual image to identify.

I looked it up it is an austrian 2 cent coin and if it weren't for the oxidized front it would be in amazing shape in comparison to examples I see on the internet. How can I clean the green rust without doing damage to the coins value?

1903 2 cent piece...austrian 2 cent coin and if it weren't for the oxidized front it would be in amazing shape in comparison to examples I see on the internet.
--About $0.25 for this damaged 2 Heller coin.

How can I clean the green rust without doing damage to the coins value?
--You cannot, this is verdigris and it permanently damages the coin. Dip in pure acetone to stop further damage but once it forms it lowers value.
