Not all valuable coins come from the U.S. Many foreign coins can be worth significant amounts due to rarity, silver or gold content, or collector demand. Some examples include:
- British Sovereigns – Small gold coins that are highly desirable.
- Mexican 50 Peso Gold Coins – Often called “Centenarios,” these large gold coins are valuable.
- Pre-1965 Canadian Silver Coins – Similar to U.S. silver coins, these contain 80-92.5% silver.
- Old Chinese Silver Dollars – Coins from the late 1800s to early 1900s are sought after by collectors.
