Osterreich 5 Almost (.640 silver)at the coinstar

[Coinstar magnet]

Well I thought I had a silver streak but 1969 was a year late...along with the Osterreich coin I picked up a few quarters. A veteran's commemorative Canadian quarter , a bunch of bit bar tokens, and a guitar pick. So not too shabby!

Thanks Billb,

Good finds, but your Austrian 5 Schillings is dated 1969 and so will be Copper-nickel (75% Copper, 25% Nickel). The composition of these coins was .640 silver and .360 copper only until 1968.

Ah, good to know. Thwarted once again. Thanks for the correction.
