Q. When is paying fifty cents for a Swiss two franc coin...........

[thurmownator]

..............a good deal ?


A. When it among a bank's $7.50 in loose halves, they will only sell it to you for fifty cents......and the other fourteen (real) halves include a :

35d (That I didn't have yet !)
42p
47d (That I didn't have yet !)
63d

Oh yeah, the Swiss two franc coin is dated 1981.


84$ in loose halves from another bank's coin counter yielded a 64p and & 66

hello, actually you did pretty darn good
1 US Dollar = 1.10261 Swiss Franc

so 2 US Dollar = 2.20522Swiss Franc

so your ahead of the game by a $1.50. sorta like finding a 40%er, but no silver.
take care

keep it for a good luck charm -- it likes to hang out with silver
