Thank you very much Peter for your information and consideration on this subject. I had noticed the lack of response and thought oh well? But i really appreciate your time in explaining this to me. Thanks Peter

Hello, Here we have a Victoria One Penny dated 1875 there seems to be a marking of sorts underneath the date? More concerned about the large marking in the middle of the coin on the rear, right over BRITANIA.. Is this well worn coin worth more than scrap? cheers

The scratch looks like it was a deliberate deface across the Indian Head for some reason? I have inherited 2 collections. Both collections have a large number of Foriegn coins in them.

Thanks again for your info mate!

Cheers RLC35, hopefully if someone wants it , it will do them a "turn" for the time being eh?

Yes mate thats brilliant, when i get round to putting that up for sale do you think £2.00 / £3.00 is a fair price? cheers

CONTINUATION

Hello all, Well it seems that after being on this forum for just a short while i have come to the conclusion that coin-collecting is not for me. I cant seem to take all the information in required to a decent decision on any of the coins. So here go's we will start of with the newer lot first if they go OK on here i will get round to putting them all on here for sale. Right im offering for sale in one lot the following HALF PENNY pieces 3 X 1967 2 X 1953 2 X 1959 2 X 1963 The above are what i would consider to be in good condition? Then we have: 30 X 1965 36 X 1964 I would describe these as very very good condition And last we have 35 X assortment of the above dates BUT with blemishes as shown in the photos. Make me an offer If you require anymore photographs of the coins with blemishes on them please ask. IN total i make that 110 coins...........What are they worth to someone? LAST PIC ON THE NEXT REPLY

Perhaps ive miss-read the information provided on the particular site and the coin i have is not one the Rare coins. Thats a shame i thought i was learning a bit, but it seems im not taking "all" the information in or im not reading the table properly?

John, Thank you very much for your valuable information What grading would you put on this mate? cheers

Appologies for the above quote i did try to edit it before it went on upload but it froze. What i meant to say was..."If the coin isnt worth more than a £1.00, im not going to loose sleep over it, if for whatever reason it will enhance someone elses collection then they can have it for the postage, or if they are lucky enough to have a buyer for it ..good luck to them" Oh dear digger, you are about to fall victim to my infinite pedantry, but you wouldn't believe how irritated I've begun to get by the epidemic all over the internet, of people who can't spell "lose" !! sleep and the patience of a good woman are what you LOSE teeth and some women become LOOSE Do forgive me, I've become a one-man quest to eradicate this blip before it finds its way into the official dictionaries. :( Dear Sir, I promise to correctly spell the word LOSE, and use it in its correct context at all times in the future.

RCL 35 Cheers mate, yes the information was of great help. Prior to seeing your reply i took the advice from Red Riley & Scottish and had taken some more photos as the original ones were of very poor quality (bit like the coin) . So whilst i have the on the PC i may aswell upload them. It is only 13 stars. Your information, once again has been very helpfull & i hope that these are of a better quality, i know it wont change the price

Thanks Red, I ask all these questions on here and never think to google them... er probably me just being lazy? Yes i see what you mean went on a well known auction site, sure enough they had one the same year BUT in ten times better condition than mine, and they only wanted £0.99p My scrap pile is getting sooo big now that if any forum member wants any of the coins that are GENUINLY of no resaleable value but just to add them to their own collection for whatever reason? just tell me ..You can have them for the postage

Sorry Mods, i was unsure where to put this one as i dont know if its a coin or token? It Has Victoria on front (worn) and a hole at the top brassy colouring. Back has "TO HANOVER" at top Man on horse going over what looks likes a dragon of sorts and the date underneath 1837? Its puzzled me.....which isnt hard Because of the damge shown in photos and the general condition of this is there any value to this coin? thank you.
