As you say, a modern replica 'aged'. It's not even a proper George V penny altered (e.g. 1935) which people are willing to pay up to £200 for in order to fill a gap. 1 Quote

secret santa Posted March 24 Posted March 24 And the moron even advertises it as Queen Victoria ! Quote
wlewisiii Posted March 24 Posted March 24 I'm more amused by what is allegedly a bronze penny having a fineness of .5 🤣 Quote
safi Posted 1 hour ago Posted 1 hour ago can I just ask if there are any experts on Victorian penny forgeries or do I have to start a new thread? Quote
Paddy Posted 11 minutes ago Posted 11 minutes ago I am not sure there are any experts specifically on Victorian penny forgeries, but there are lots of Penny experts here, who can spot a forgery a mile off! Are you looking at contemporary forgeries (I am not aware there are many of those), or the ubiquitous modern fakes? I think a new thread would be best. Quote
