Old Sri Lankan are nkown for having sun, moon and other astronomical symbols very commonly. Some of these date back to ancient times and must be worth a lot. There are also some modern Lankan coins from the SAF games etc which have a sun symbol.

Are you talking about an ancient coin or a present coin? If it's a present valid coin, then find out which country it belongs to - check out some coin pics from every country. I'm sure there's more on the coin than the sun - please share more details!

is it a historic coin? Then join a coin collectors forum on the web and post a pic and as for details. There are quite a few people who will tel you more details including country, age and value.

Many of these types of coins are worth more on the international market then in the United States. It sounds as if you have a fairly recent coin as many of the early coins had faces.

I am afraid that without more information no one will be able to help you. It could be a Japanese Yen (land of the rising sun). Yen is currently 143 yen = 1 US dollar. Or it could be from a now defunct government (South Vietnam, Tammor etc), if so it is valueless.
