How much would 20 Greek drachmas (former currency) be worth in U.S. dollars/cents if I were to sell it?

Question

The coin is dated 1990.

Answer 1

The coin type from Greece was struck from 1990 to 2000 before the country joined another twelve in issuing Euro currency. World coins catalog list the 20 drachmes coin as number km#154 and valued it at $1,25 in mint condition, although this coin can be found in some dealer's world mixed coins bin for a quarter or less each like Taiping mentioned. It's a common world coin that dealer's don't normally buy. The obverse depicts Greece's national anthem composer Dionysios Solomos.

Answer 2

Greece uses the Euro and the time to have pass in the 20 Drachmes (the coin is listed under this spelling) has gone by I believe. It is worth about .25 as a collectors item. It can usually be found in dealers world coin boxes for that price or less.

Answer 3

20 Drachma Coin

Answer 4

If you mean 11.000 drachmas this amount is translated to 32 euros, an amount which is not considered very important nowdays, as the value of drachmas was quite different 5 years ago. With that amount one could buy lots of things, while with the corresponding value in euros just a meal at a mediocre restaurant. Banks do not exchange drachmas any longer, and the value of recent drachmas is of no importance as they are not yet considered as old (antique) money. So, sorry to say, but it's evident that you've lost this amount.

Answer 5

If the currency is discontinued, as your question implies, then I'm afraid not much. At least, not now. Hold onto it, and in a while, those coins ( I assume they're coins?) will pull in a lot more than they would now. It varies by the collector, of course, so if you're determined to get a good deal, some time down the road, you'll get one.
