Best Answer

You are asking about a 1/4 Balboa coin (KM#11) from Panama. The coin is 24.25mm in diameter, weighs 5.65 grams, and is mad of copper-nickle clad around a copper core. The obverse (front) has the national coat of arms with the words "REBVBLICA DE PANAMA" ("Republic of Panama" in Spanish) above and the date below. The reverse (back) has a portrait of an armored conquistador and the words "VN CVARTO DE BALBOA" ("One-Quarter of a Balboa" in Spanish) above. 1,500,000 such coins were produced in 1975.

Note that the "v" is a stylized use of Roman orthography, which did not have the separate letter "U" and used V as both a vowel and consonant. A number of older U.S. coins also have the same usage.

From a foreign exchange standpoint, the balboa trades at par with the U.S. dollar so your quarter-balboa coin is worth 25 US cents.

From a numismatic standpoint, acording to the Standard Catalog of World Coins, an example is worth US$0.35 in Very Fine condition, US$0.50 in Extremely Fine condition, US$3.00 in Uncirculated condition, and US$7.00 in Brilliant Uncirculated condition.

The value is for the silver only. The fact that it's proof (they all are) adds no value.

A 1975 medio Balboa (half Balboa) coin is made of copper-nickel and corresponds to a US half dollar in size and composition. As such, it has no real added value if it's in circulated condition. For an uncirculated or proof half Balboa, prices range from $5 to $10 each. The exact price one will get will depend upon the condition of the coin.

These coins are no longer in circulation since they were withdrawn and demonetised in 1987. Unless they are part of a Proof or Uncirculated mint set or are individual Proof or Uncirculated coins and in absolute mint condition, they have little or no value.
