1763 Dansk America

K500

Has anyone seen a 1763 Dansk America coin XII Skilling ???
What kind of coins is that and what could it be worth ?

MrEureka

That's the former Danish West Indies, now US Virgin Islands. Could be worth anywhere north of twenty bucks, depending on quality. A superb gem would be very rare and would probably sell at $1500-2000. BTW, DWI makes an interesting side tour and great value for a US collector.

For those that may be curious...



BTW, 1765 is a slightly better date than the 1763.

Thanks Andy, that's exactly the one.

Do you have any information about a 1816 Dansk America X Skilling ?
There is a crown and 3 lions on the backside.

Thanks again, Jay

Thanks Andy for the image. I love that "old school" ship design.

They probably start at about ten bucks and are not as difficult to find in mint state grades.

Are counterfeits out there of the 1763 Dansk America?
