augsburger Pillar of the Community Germany 1064 Posts	Posted 01/23/2015 4:38 pm I though they came in by the tonne, not grams. Apparently 56.1g is the normal weight. I thought these were the size because they contained the right amount of copper to be worth 2 pence. But if it weighs a little bit more I wouldn't have thought it a problem.

Tryna Pillar of the Community United States 937 Posts	Posted 01/24/2015 11:49 am Wow! this must be two pense week. Just bought one Thursday. Yours in much better shape than mine. Mine came with a price tag from a coin dealer in London and a 68 pound price tag. But I only paid $50 for it and a 1949 half crown and three 50 P. Report this Post to the Staff
