Chrissie Posted September 23, 2008 Posted September 23, 2008 Can anyone give me any idea if this coin has any value apart from scrap? It seems a shame to do that to it if it is something collectors would want.Many thanks Quote
Chris Perkins Posted September 23, 2008 Posted September 23, 2008 What year is it and is it mainland GB (i.e. not Channel islands, Isle of Man etc)? Quote
Chrissie Posted September 23, 2008 Author Posted September 23, 2008 What year is it and is it mainland GB (i.e. not Channel islands, Isle of Man etc)?Hi it is 1987, weighs 1/2 ounce and was struck by the Royal Mint for Britannia Building Society. It is in mint conditionThanksChrissie Quote
Chris Perkins Posted September 23, 2008 Posted September 23, 2008 Sounds like a scrapper. As a dealer I'd try to sell it for 10% above scrap. I doubt it was made for the building society, more likely re-packaged by them because it is known as a 'Britannia'.I'd offer £239.00 for it. Quote
