Windypops New Member United Kingdom 20 Posts	Posted 02/26/2024 5:56 pm Hi I have what I think is a George III Cartwheek penny 1797 (35mm dia x 3mm thick). Its not in that good condition. Is it worth anything? Report this Post to the Staff

Pertinax Pillar of the Community United Kingdom 2135 Posts	Posted 02/26/2024 6:33 pm This is the worst specimen I've ever seen - the ultimate "low-ball"! It might be worth a bit to a low-ball collector, but otherwise just the value of almost an ounce of copper. Report this Post to the Staff

NumisRob Bedrock of the Community United Kingdom 18023 Posts	Posted 02/27/2024 05:28 am My local dealer has a junk bin with coins for 25 pence each, and I've seen similar ones in it! But it's still quite fun to have a genuine 18th-century coin, a piece of English history!

Dearborn Moderator United States 98746 Posts	Posted 02/27/2024 06:28 am How did you ever get a date out of that coin? That one sure did its work back in the day. To me it is either good for the copper smelter or a lowball collection. I think I can make out the letters R and X from REX on the rim - right side. I had to go back to my coin to help me make out details, The date should be on the reverse rim, but I cannot make it out at all. Collecting since 1972. Learning from then on "Tell me and I forget.

PaddyB Pillar of the Community United Kingdom 945 Posts	Posted 02/27/2024 06:43 am It's fairly straightforward to date that type - they were only made in one year! Report this Post to the Staff
