Hello to my new coin family!

Thank you for pointy me in the write direction, its a very welcoming and helpful site I can already tell.

Im from Australia, melbourne. And I'm fascinated by the many different shapes and artwork (improved) that ive discovered on the coins old and new. Most recently I have found a 1931 'dropped 1'australian penny, I belive less than 1000 minted, upon researching this coin, there seems to be a huge variance in the values,

Any info anyone has on this coin would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks again for the welcome!!

We need the obverse pic to work out a value.
A larger size would be good also.

Circa $3500 in average condition.
