Hi,

Complete newbie to coin collecting and just adding my coins I got from eBay onto this amazing site and can't find a Swiss 1 Franc 1954 that I have (see pics) on this page https://en.numista.com/catalogue/pieces184.html.

Am I on the correct page and am I correct in saying that it's not on the site? If not how do I add it please and is it worth anything?

Thanks in advance!

I am guessing that your coin is rather light in weight -
and if so is not a silver coin but an aluminium token ...

Yes - look below the lady - on the coin it says HELVETIA but on
the token it says A G SIGG like yours does.

Thank you for your very quick response.

It is indeed very light and that's the exact token.

Best regards

John
