This coin is beyond obsolete and 132 years old but even if it was not harshly cleaned it would still only be about $1.00. There is a popular myth that if something is old it is valuable. This is one of the oldest foreign coins I have and although cool it is nothing to retire on. Out of the thirty two Austiran coins I have this is the oldest.

They look and feel like U.S. coins from the same period. The wreath in the back with the little ribbon was a standard of many cents. It was a symbol of wealth and health beyond just Christmas times.
Here are the stats...
Type/Country: 1 Kreuzer / Austria
Year: 1879
Mintage: Unknown
Metal: Copper
Value: $0.25 in cleaned
I have another that also was cleaned apparently that is the only reason I got them in a cheap coin lot.
Do you have any Euro coin 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.
Found this coin, 1881 two headed, Austria Kreuzer in good condition. Can you tell me how much it is worth? Mark Pettis peachuz01@hotmail.com
