1711 Queen Anne Holed 6p

[Irishraider 0]

Hi all. Is this coin on eBay worth the price if it has had a hole drilled in it? I would like to get it for my tanner set but don't have a Spinks catalog yet to be able to look up the rarity of these older coins. Thank you for any help you can provide.

My book starts at 1797, so won't cover this.

It's going to be worth a lot less than catalogue value with a hole. I'd imagine probably £5 or something like that, because it still is, no doubt, an attractive piece of old silver.

Thank you all for the help. I think I will get it, with postage it will come to approximately £5 ($10US). It will be the oldest one I have and I suppose I could always sell or give away in the future if I happen upon a better one. The oldest 6p I have to date is my 1834 William IV 6p and my 1887 Victoria 6p (w/coat of arms on reverse). Wish I could get my camera going better but am waiting to build me a copy stand in a couple weekends so I can get better pics.

Just a cautionary advice, this seller has feedback which is not quite stellar.

That's a good point. I didn't check that too close, I should do that more often. I did bid on it but didn't put but the minimum and if someone pops another 25 cents on it it is theirs to have. Seems like eBay is like going to the casino anymore these days. LOL!

I didn't win it, lol. Is ok, I wanted it but didn't want it. If that makes any sense.

Recently there was something on ebay that I wanted and didn't want, and now I've won it. And I didn't really want to! In fact I'll have 2 the same now. Even experienced ebayers can still get carried away sometimes.

I received my GB price guide a few days ago and am very pleased with all the new information it is giving me about the British coins I have, especially my 6d. Thank you for having this book available Chris.

Crikes ! I am so happy that I am not the only fool that has occasioned that feeling:) I have bid on stuff then found something better and ended up with the lousier one.

Glad you like it Irishraider.

That's why you can't usually use ebay price data....It's flawed by the millions of people bidding when they don't really want to bid. It's so easy to get drawn in.
