Peru 1/2 and 1 Sol 1966 to 1975
Well. 'Oro' means 'gold' but, shucks, there is no gold in these coins. They are made of brass.
Since they are modern coins made of non-precious metal, they are worth face value. The one in our picture is fully uncirculated, so a collector might pay a few US dollars for it.
