That is an obsolete coin, they are all on Euros now

But on the bright side it is/was worth .99cents ($1 = 5fr)

As far as foreign coins, identifing, determining their worth and amount of silver in them, if any, is the following site:

I've done very well with foreign coins finding silver...So many of them look like they are silver and are not that they end up in the "foreign coins" bin. Usually for 50 cents or less. I think a lot of dealers are busy and don't take the time to look them up. I keep a current Red Book, Photo Guide, and a World Coin book in my truck. Treasure is where you find it and knowledge is the greatest treasure that you can use to find treasure...

Although I won't argue that the site is good, there are holes in its list and pictures. I was trying to identify a coin for someone under the coins area of this site. I was using a World Coin Book from the library. It was very clearly a particular issue was "relatively" valuable ($50?). Someone else used the site listed above and ID'd the coin differently due to no picture and a missing listing of another alternative. The one listed was a common ($1-$2) coin.

Same year, country and everything else. Without the picture it was impossible to know that the coin had been identified wrong. Anyways, just a warning that it is not complete.
