It was good enought to work the coin out. If you have more to ask about try taking pics, then people can also judge the grade for you and perhaps give a price based on its grade.

Fairly common, very short date range,

WIIII 1834, 35, 36 & 37, Victoria 1838, 39, 40, 41, 42, 43, 60 & 62, there is a proof in the series the very rare 1870.

They were never used/circulated in the UK, only in the colonies of British Guyana, Jamaica, Sri Lanka and Trinidad.
