You are asking about a 2 1/2 Shilling coin (or Half Crown) from South Africa (KM#7). The coin weighs 14.138 grams and is 92.5% silver, giving it an ASW (Actual Silver Weight) of 0.4205 troy ounces. With silver at US$18.72 per troy ounce (as of April 30, 2010), the "melt value" of this coin is about US$7.87.

The obverse of the coin has a portrait of Paul Kruger and the words "ZUID AFRIKAANSCHE REPUBLIEK" (Afrikaans for "South African Republic"). The reverse has a coat of arms with the denomination and date above.

16,000 of these coins were produced in 1892. According to the Standard Catalog of World Coins, an example is worth about US$15 in Fine condition, US$40 in Very Fine condition, US$125 in Extremely Fine condition, and US$350 in Uncirculated condition.
