This is one of the few non-twenty dollar coins found in the <I>Central America.</B></I> The surfaces are light green-gold with a number of small abrasions scattered over each side.<BR><BR><b>Shipping:</b> Coin/Currency (<a target="_blank" href="http://www.heritageauctions.com/common/shipping.php">view shipping information</a>)
