RENNES Posted February 28, 2013 Posted February 28, 2013 Hello from France.Today I picked up these coins at a local Brocante.http://s1277.beta.photobucket.com/user/LouisX1V/library/British%20coppe0.30 euro cents a coin.Apologies for the photography, can anyone else see the additional line within the exergue of the 1919 H Penny. I knew this coin existed with the Heaton mark. And also the KN.But I was shocked to see catalouge values. Where the coin becomes rare is in the much higher grades I suppose. Please can anyone offer advice on the grade of the 1919HMy one looks to polished?There is a second 1919H in the lot and a 1912 H.Im quite happy with the purchase The French collectors I know here are simply not interested in English copper coins..All for me...

The 1919H is a devil to find in good, well struck condition. Yours is above average, but not greatly so. The obverse is often weak, so taking that into account, I would say that your coin is between Fine and VF. (F or F+ for the obverse, and AVF for the reverse).Because it is so difficult to find in higher grades, that's why the price rockets up once you reach EF or better. It's the same for 1918 too, and both for H and KN. Quote
