    1863 One Penny Help?

    Looks like I had a very good find then, I'll probably hold on to it for a while anyway. Where would be the best place to get it authenticated? Also would coin capsules be a good way to store it in the meantime? I did purchase a few plastic holders but then I read about PVC damage online so it's probably best to avoid that now.

    Feel free to come round Bronze Mad haha, must have been 5 years ago at least when I found this coin. Had it sitting amongst some others in a tin, wish I took a bit more care of it now. I tried my best to get a good shot and hopefully it's good enough, definetly looks like a four to me!

    Well that's a nice bit of information I didn't know before so thank you. What condition would you say the coin is in from the current pictures and does this coin have much value if it is the number 4? I will upload more detailed pictures tomorrow evening once I get some batteries for my good camera (These were taken on my phone).
  4. Hey guys, Recently had an interest in coins and started looking around the house for some old coins I had laying around. I was searching through some old coins from metal detecting and this one penny was found in my garden. After doing a bit of research into the coin I noticed many didn't have a marking under the date, a closer look it seems to be the number 4? It's not really clear on the photograph but i'll try get a more detailed photo if you need it. I researched abit and found this article which seems very similar to my penny apart from the number being different. Anyway I was hoping someone could possibly give me some more information at all? http://api.viglink.com/api/click?format=go&jsonp=vglnk_jsonp_14085654596436&key=ad2afc48cb2a0d04b9b54aa89d0764f6&libId=7770036b-414e-4d55-8665-11a0b3cc5e19&loc=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.coincommunity.com%2Fforum%2Ftopic.asp%3FTOPIC_ID%3D184838&v=1&out=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.coinlink.com%2FNews%2Fworld-coins%2Funique-unrecorded-1863-penny-sold-for-a-record-17500%2F&ref=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.coincommunity.com%2Fforum%2Fforum.asp%3FFORUM_ID%3D36&title=1863%20One%20Penny%20Die%20Number%20-%20Coin%20Community%20Forum&txt=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.coinlink.com%2FNews%2Fworld-...ecord-17500%2F
