PaddyB Pillar of the Community United Kingdom 945 Posts	Posted 01/10/2020 1:08 pm This is a "Fantasy" threepence featuring Edward VIII bust. I don't believe any were produced, even in pattern form at the time, but one of the commemorative producers (Westminster?) produced a fantasy Maundy set a few years back. I have a full set somewhere but can't lay my hands on it just now. The full set sells for up to £75 online. I suspect a single coin would make £10 to £20 depending on whether someone took a fancy to it. Report this Post to the Staff

No. If yours is real (most unlikely, look at the poor workmanship) it is worth tens of thousands. Unfortunately the market is awash with repros and fantasy versions of rare coins. Here's a genuine one: Edited by Hogarth 01/10/2020 3:24 pm Report this Post to the Staff
NumisRob Bedrock of the Community United Kingdom 18061 Posts	Posted 01/10/2020 3:06 pm I have a similar Edward VIII sixpence at home. I believe that these fantasy coins were sold by London coin dealer Richard Lobel (Coincraft) a few years ago.
