Guess How Much I Paid?

1839 + 1842 Farthings

1807 Half penny

:)

That would have been a bargain!

If you know somewhere I can pick these up for a quid, let me know!!
I have heard that 'back in the day' it wasn't unusual to find these kind of coins in bargain buckets, but unfortunately, I never see anything worth more than a pound, for a pound!!

No, unfortunately I paid proper values for the coins, just what I believe to be good value

Is the farthing open 2?
The same dies were used for sovereigns.

Hi Peter,

I assume that the open/ closed 2 is different varieties of the coin?
I tried looking around the net for info on this, I found that there is a variety of this coin with a large '42', but couldn't find anything on the open 2?

Where is the best place/ book etc that lists variety of coin?
I have Spink 2014 & obviously use Coins-of-the-uk, but neither of these appear to show all varieties of each coin, is there somewhere that does?

Thanks

Wish id never posted this topic.... quite depressing :/

but, yes possibly does look polished.

by my estimates, based on grading and spink, I would have said I had about £40 worth of coins here, the 1842 has got to be NVF if not VF, and that could be valued up to £50 alone,

Oh well, I am either delusional... or people having a bad day lol

Peter, would value your honest valuation

Thanks
