British Coins Part 2

Hi

I have some predecimal coins that I am wondering if are worth anything.

Regards

Alistair,

Sorry to disappoint, but from the pictures I think it's fair to say that none of these coins is really worth anything other than a few pence. There's nothing out of the ordinary there, and most of the coins have seem a lot of wear, with some having developed verdigris.

Excerpt for obvious rarities, the condition of a coin is more important to a collector than its age. However, thank you for your enquiry and don't hesitate to get back to us with any further questions. You'll also find a lot of useful information elsewhere on the site which could be helpful to a beginner collector.

Hi

Thanks once again. I had a look at the current ones on offer on the predecimal site and had come to the conclusion that they were well worn, badly stored (I forgot I had them) and also fairly common.

I have a couple more posts which I will do this pm. And thanks again for your help.

Regards

Alistair

That's a nice list. Thank you for posting the link. I've bookmarked it so that I can be sure when I get a few key date coins.
