That sounds like a nice piece. I sold most of my silver coins years ago; some were 1930s USSR and Nazi Germany, but they weren’t in great shape. Buyers often didn’t want to pay much more than spot anyway (and they were probably right to be leery opf any “intrinsic value” added by the history/age of the coin itself).

I always think it is so cheezy when you’re watching a WWII flick, and to try to keep it real they have GIs with US coins from the time - but they are so worn they look like they are fifty years old (and the film is made in the mid-90s).

The true value is in the metal if it assays as true.

Old peasant saying: “A thousand in paper, or eight hundred in silver, and the cow is yours.”
