Linkwise, same here for me.
With cartwheel tuppences, rim damage or the lack of it has great bearing on the value.
These were heavy coins made from soft, pure copper, and are relatively easily damaged.

That, plus the fact that they are old and maybe have avoided the ravages of wear, makes them hard to find in EF or better condition.

It looks like it has been slightly cleaned (around the rim and higher points of the reverse) with brasso or polish... in fact the paper towel in the background of the photo looks like it shows the recent residue (possibly done prior to photographing). OK for a tenner.
