You are asking about a 5 Shilling coin (also called a "Crown") from South Africa (KM#52). The coin weighs 28.28 grams and is 50.0% silver, giving it an ASW (Actual Silver Weight) of 0.4546 troy ounces. With silver at US$18.50 per troy ounce (as of June 1, 2010), the "melt value" of this coin is about US$8.41.
The obverse of the coin has a portrait of Queen Elizabeth the Second and the words "Elizabeth II REGINA" (Latin for "Elizabeth the Second, Queen"). The reverse has an image of a Springbok (an African antelope), with the words "SUID-AFRIKA" (Afrikaans for "South Africa"), the date, and "SOUTH AFRICA" above and the denomination ("5s", the abbreviations for "Five Shillings") below.
40,000 of these coins were produced in 1955. According to the 2010 Standard Catalog of World Coins, an example is worth about US$10.00 in Extremely Fine condition and US$16.00 in Uncirculated condition.
Another 2,230 were produced in Proof-like condition - these are valued at about US$20.00 each; and 2,850 were produced in Proof condition - these are valued at about US$22.50 each.

∙ 13y agoThe coin is probably not worth much more than its silver value (0.4546 troy ounces - worth US$15.64 at March 2, 2011's silver bullion value of US$34.40 per troy ounce) unless in Brilliant Uncirculated or Proof condition, and even then it seems unlikely you'd be offered more than about US$20.
