Tim P. Posted July 11, 2012 Posted July 11, 2012 Hi all, First a quick hello . And then onto my enquiry, I have attached a picture of a Victoria young head sixpence but it appears to have no date. I can't find anything about this on the net so far, anyone know anything about this ..?. Thanks in advance. Tim. Quote
Debbie Posted July 11, 2012 Posted July 11, 2012 Hi Tim and welcome. I may be wrong, but that looks like Victorian toy money to me. Quote
Peckris Posted July 11, 2012 Posted July 11, 2012 (edited) Hi Tim and welcome. I may be wrong, but that looks like Victorian toy money to me.Spot on - the legend even features the name Lauer who was the leading Victorian maker of toy coins. He was based at Nürmberg which is also part of the legend. As for value, someone here will have a better idea. Edited July 11, 2012 by Peckris Quote
Rob Posted August 6, 2012 Posted August 6, 2012 its either a fake or an errorNeither. It is toy money which was never intended to circulate or deceive. Quote
