1962 Czechoslovakia 1 Haléř!


My first, and only, Czechoslovakian coin. I got it in the junk bin at the flea market for relatively little and, even in this condition, it is worth relatively little. The being a tiny aluminum coin with a pretty high mintage does not help the value at all. It's got an odd-looking Czech lion as its main design and some stars and leaves to keep us occupied. I'm not sure why it's so obscure as to what the value is. Maybe they thought people would just assume it's a 1 cent coin. Then again, if someone was visiting from Iceland back in the day, It would have made perfect sense for this to be the dollar equivalent. Well anyway, it's worth about $0.10 which seems to be somewhat standard amongst tiny, high mintage aluminum coins.
