Unfamiliar with UK coinage. Although, I've been looking for a decent example of this for a while and finally found one for a good price I think. It's a really interesting coin (whoever though it'd be a good idea to mint a coin that weighs 2 ounces and is 41 mm wide?)

I'm wondering what ya'll think it grades at and maybe it's value? (I don't own a UK coin price guide). Thanks.

That thing is in amazing condition. It's my understanding these are hard to find in this condition. I can't help you with price but id say it's in high AU to MS.

No way any better than GVF.
It is still a nice coin and a bargain.

Copper coins in the UK are difficult to grade but this is definitely GVF/AEF rather than UNC. Not a bad price paid
