Petersun Pillar of the Community Canada 1700 Posts	Posted 04/09/2013 10:50 am I received this coin from a friend. I live in Canada, therefore, I don't collect UK coins. Are there links of information for this penny? (mintage, value, varieties, etc) Thanks! Report this Post to the Staff

Ben Pillar of the Community United Kingdom 4208 Posts	Posted 04/09/2013 1:10 pm Value: In the UK you can find these for a pittance (if you know where to look, that is), over seas id say about £1, ebay you'd probably get £1 BIN. mintage: Its a 'low' mintage one - 14,324,400 were made. This doesn't increase the value though. Varieties: none listed. They really didnt make that many modifications to dies. Edited by Ben 04/09/2013 1:14 pm Report this Post to the Staff

Demarco Bishopp Pillar of the Community United Kingdom 548 Posts	Posted 04/10/2013 06:46 am One of those coins that's actually worth less than the cardboard holder it's contained in. Report this Post to the Staff

Tom Goodheart Pillar of the Community United Kingdom 856 Posts	Posted 04/10/2013 12:03 pm I'm not sure there are NO varieties. However they are a specialised area and to buy the best books on the subject (Michael Gouby's "The British Bronze Penny 1860 to 1970" and Michael J. Freeman's "The Bronze Coinage of Great Britain") would be expensive and the levels of variation tends to be whether the trident points to a tooth or not, or the alignment of the legend lettering, border width, that sort of thing. (You can just tell it's not my area of interest, can't you?!) Report this Post to the Staff
