But the face is warn down to about a silhouette but the inscription is clean, and on the front its the same thing about a silhouette of the grill holding the trident. The date is crisp though 1919.
Any idea on value or should I just throw it back and hope its accepted as .50ct back in the machine?
Lists at 80 cents in fine - yours is probably in the 20 cent range. 8 cents worth of copper. Uncirculated they are quite expensive though.

I'd keep it even if you lost a little money on it. You could build up enough stuff to have an auction on here of weird coins or foreign coins you find.
