Inherited Coins

Probably a sovereign, possibly a half sovereign. Sovereign gold content s 0.2354 ounces, which would represent the value of the coin. Most coin stores would buy it at a small discount off the spot price.

Love the gold coins - a great thing to inherit!

The Victorian 1838 groat and the 1868 Maundy threepence look nice. The big pile of silver coins looks like mainly fairly worn George V and George VI coins from 1920-1946, which are basically worth their silver bullion content, but it might be worth going through them and making a list as there could be some better dates or ones in nicer condition that would be worth more. The right-hand coin in the top row is a George III crown minted between 1818 and 1820, which is worth only its silver bullion value in that condition: the same would apply to the other George III crown and the George III shilling in the fourth row. The two Elizabeth II sixpences in the fifth row are cupro-nickel and of almost no value, but the George V and VI ones lower down are 50% silver. The copper coins in the 2nd and 3rd rows look like George III pennies but are too worn to be worth very much - though nice to keep as souvenirs. The damaged silver coins in the last two rows and the holed South African shilling in Row 5 are basically worth their bullion value only.
