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

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.

Here is a Liberty head One Cent coin from United States of America dated 1817. The coin is approximately the size of a British 2 pence piece. (shown here in comparison in size to an 1881 one cent) The front has 13 (thirteen stars) round the coin in the middle the bust of Liberty with the word LIBERTY written on the crown (tiara), underneath is the date of 1817. The back has the wording: UNITED STATES of AMERICA, then a wreath and then ONE CENT in the middle. I think the coin has seen many better days, what grading would you put on this? Is there any sort of value to this coin? Thank you

Azda, no unfortunately the marks are a cross and not a pen mark Fine, but i think deep when looked through a mag-glass?

Here i have an Indian Head One Cent coin dated 1881. Its about the size of a British one pence piece of now. What grading would you give this coin ? Also is there any value to it? cheers in advance
