Not a change find instead it was found on the floor of a Dunkin' Donuts along with some other cents. Apparently in Starbucks some can find a tenner but in lowly Dunkin' Donuts you must scrounge the floor for a cent.
It is my second 1977 Trinidad and Tobago cent find but my first this year. This does keep up with the pattern of foreign finds I find on a regular basis.
The obverse has the Coat of Arms of Trinidad and Tobago with the Scarlet Ibis, the Cocrico, and the hummingbird which is also featured on the reverse. The motto says TOGETHER WE ASPIRE, TOGETHER WE ACHIEVE like most mottoes is meant to unite a diverse country.A touch smaller, thinner, and lighter than a U.S. cent it still can pass especially since it is so dark in hand.
Here's the stats for this coin...
Type/Country: 1 Cent / Trinidad and Tobago
Year: 1977
Mintage: 25,000,000
Metal: Bronze
Value: $0.05 in F

Nice scan that... what's the orange background from, out of interest?
It is an old desk that was marbleized and given to me when I got my first desktop PC. I used it with my camera to match the orange color of the Dunkin' Donuts floors.

I have found a coin that has a ship on one side and 2 hummingbirds on the other side and 65,000.00 please could you tell me where it comes from and if it has any value?
ship on one side and 2 hummingbirds on the other side and 65,000.00
Sorry but without any ,ore specific information I can't say.
Plus what does "65,000.00" mean? Is that written on the coin?
Yes it is written on both sides....I'm not sure what the 65,000 means
There is nothing else on the coin and when I researched it..it said it was from trinidad & tabago and not in circulation
Yes it is written on both sides....
The design may either be from Trinidad & Tobago or Cuba. The ship looks like a galleon.
I am stumped, because it is 2010 it is not listed in any printed catalog.
I suspect this is a token from some type of magazine or club.
But it can also an anniversary coin. Cuba is the most difficult to update and they have coins with Trinidad as a theme.
Sorry, that no official records exist.
That said online research suggest this...
"it was made as "lucky coin" for anniversary by company called Bakker-Holland...Jubilee Lottery"

Unless I see the original packaging I will say the above link is 50% correct, keep monitoring that thread and maybe the will 100% confirm it.
I will wait for the 2012 catalogs to see if it's listed and will update if I can.
Sorry for not being 100%.
Thank you for your research and help and I will watch that thread :-D

You should never clean coins.

That said try pure acetone, not nail polish remover.
