Any chance of a pic or two Hello? That always helps with valuations as clarity of the error will be a factor.

A genuine 1954 penny would be worth many thousands of pounds. Only one is known for sure. But you have to ask yourself, "Do I feel lucky?" Well, do ya? My bet is it's either a counterfeit or a typo. ;)

1854 typo probably...

Does make me wonder if the Royal Mint only made the one that has escaped into commercial channels (1954 that is).

There used to be a crisp (potato chip) add that went : "bet you can't eat just one!"

Have always wondered if there were slop with regards to mintage of such supposedly unique pieces.

My bet is that they had a trial striking & then ordered a meltdown, and one got trousered ;) but what if more than one got trousered??

i do know that it is worth over £5

The 1954? Add four zeroes! But if you mean 1854, it's all dependent on condition as I'm sure you know. Any pictures yet?
