Greece 10 Lepta 1869 to 1882

Greece 10 Lepta 1869 to 1882

That's a 10 lepta coin from Greece, Necie. The coin in my picture is a little different than yours, but pretty close. They changed the design slighly in 1878.

As to value, the *common date* coins like yours show catalog values as follows:

worn: $5 US dollars
average circulated: $10
well preserved: $40
fully uncirculated: $100

The coin in the picture is pretty lame. There is not too much wear, but the surfaces are porous and discolored. Instead of a value corresponding to average circulated, I'd lower this particular speciment to the value for worn.

There are *better dates* in the series, as follows:

1870: $50 in average circulated condition
1879A: $100 in average circulated (must have A mint mark, not K)

These are catalog values. Use our Important Terminology link to understand what 'catalog value' means.
