Voynov_BG Posted July 26, 2011 Posted July 26, 2011 Help me please with approx. value of this coin because I have no idea from Freeman variety but one man from my city ask to buy this coin from me. The coin has some minor rim nicks on the rim. Thanks. Quote
azda Posted July 26, 2011 Posted July 26, 2011 It looks like obv6 rev I but i'd wait on another opinion as i'm just using my iphone and that die pairing is rare Quote
just.me Posted July 26, 2011 Posted July 26, 2011 Hi, the Penny looks like a Freeman 66, obverse 6 (large gap btween ribbo and back of neck), reverse G (wide date and sea crosses linear circle) Quote
Red Riley Posted July 27, 2011 Posted July 27, 2011 Hi, the Penny looks like a Freeman 66, obverse 6 (large gap btween ribbo and back of neck), reverse G (wide date and sea crosses linear circle)I would agree with that, the 2nd most common of the 12 generally acknowledged 1874 varieties. Looks around GVF, retail price £30-£35 perhaps less as mid-grade bun pennies are hardly flying off the shelves at present. Quote

Close, I would have guessed 'Practically UNC' Quote
Voynov_BG Posted July 27, 2011 Author Posted July 27, 2011 I think it`s not over GVF in british standard, and there are some rim nicks and something on the hair probably difficult to clean.This is after gram oil:Thanks for the help! Quote

Close, I would have guessed 'Practically UNC'Wrong terminology ... He uses virtually uncirculated ... Spink say the coin is worth £1000 Quote
