yea can get decent common piences in decent grade, i got a VF 1919 for a quid, EF 1918 with some lustre for £5, while not rare, they are very desirable and there is a list of these key dates on the site, http://www.predecimal.com/key_dates.htm how many of these are "rare" 1912H penny? where is the 1979 narrow date and 1858 small date farthing. i do think some coins are overrated 1988 pound anyone...
