Franklin Mint is the replica pieces $ 20 (silver look) makes money or not? And it is worth $?

I just discovered there are replicas, but the British Virgin Islands 20 million pieces. Are silver, but I still do not know the purity or weight. I have some pictures if anyone wants to email me and I can return with some photos attached. Thank you for your imput!

I do not know what you have. 20 million coins of the United States are double eagles are gold. Aftershocks are usually nickel-copper-gold, silver or plated gold. The Franklin Mint in recent years has led many coins as well as calls for a real foreign countries. The fact also a great number of medals they called coins, but they are not. There is little market action side of these items and they sell gold or silver in them. Chances are that your items are sterling silver. A major coin dealer might say, baby steps. Best I can do without see them.

How was the minting of coins in the fall of the Roman Empire?

Test information! Need to know what parts are made to the rule, why is the currency was a bad idea! All resources, information would be great! thank you!

The pieces are not bad idea, the problem is they keep devaluing them. In other words, they had less money or gold, but the government said they were the same value as before.

What is the silver content of Panamanian coins minted 1945-1970?

I’m interested in the one, two and five balboa coins

The Balboa up to 1974 is .900 silver. There are no 2 Balboa coins. The 5 Balboa did not start until 1970 and it depends on the date and type as to it’s silver content, some are .500 and others .925. The 1/10 Balboa and up are usually .900 silver until 1962. Some coins like the 1/2 Balboa were .400 silver clad up to 1972. Looks like there is no basic rules here so the coins need to be looked up by denomination and date.

minting coins
minting coins
Is it true that minting a coin of lower denominations is costlier than its face value?

For example (to elaborate further for understanding) minting of a 25 pence coin is this expensive than 25 pence??
As these are metals I feel it must be expensive to mint them, this leaves a room for people to collect these coins and convert them to bars and resell to the government for minting again??

Truly don’t know all the particulars here
and especially with the coins there in the U K
But, I have read of late that here in the U S
it now takes more than a penny’s worth of copper
to make a penny and so they are seeing incidents
of people melting the suckers down for the copper !!
