Coinaholic73 Valued Member United Kingdom 298 Posts	Posted 06/28/2014 08:04 am Plucked this out of a British junk lot of copper coins, recognised it but didn't realise there were so many varieties of these - can someone in the know attribute this? Report this Post to the Staff

philadelphian Pillar of the Community United States 3253 Posts	Posted 06/28/2014 09:35 am I'll go along with Miller 5-F.5. How'd this ever end up in a British junk lot? Report this Post to the Staff
Ben Pillar of the Community United Kingdom 4208 Posts	Posted 06/28/2014 11:11 am We have so many coins from this period that no-one takes a second look at them. I guess a collection was pawned off and everything thrown into a big pile. How much are these things worth, anyway? Might be worth looking out for. Report this Post to the Staff

I guess at a quick glance these are easily mistaken for British half pennies and in this condition would be next to worthless. Any idea as to worth in this condition? ebay final realised prices seem to vary quite a lot so its difficult to get an idea? Value seems to start at $40-50 Report this Post to the Staff
amida17 Pillar of the Community United States 4897 Posts	Posted 06/28/2014 11:18 am This one has great details and is an R4 ( not enough variety collectors for this to have a huge premium....imo) but that face scratch is deep.... I would go $50 -$75. Report this Post to the Staff
