Silverlight Posted July 3, 2012 Posted July 3, 2012 Hi everyone, new here. Have a pile of old coins given to me and I have tryed my best to find out is this 1882 coin a H or not, its very worn so it more than likely is a H but I want to be certain. Spent ageous comparing it even used magnifier but no use. It also has strange stampings of 404 around it which is confusing?Also have a 1922 coin in what seems very condition, Ill upload a pictue of that also just wondering what you would consider of its condition?Anyway thanks for any insight you may have.Here is link to Photoshttp://s911.photobucket.com/upload/albums/james998964/ Quote

The 1922 is the ordinary version (a rare version exists), in GVF condition. Quote

The 404 has been stamped on it by a previous owner. The 1922 penny is in an acceptable grade as a space filler, and a cut above the sort of hoarded rubbish leftover from the 60s. It's in GVF grade, probably valued at a pound or two. You'd want a minimum EF though as a collector, but it looks nice. Quote
