jgettings00 Valued Member United States 149 Posts	Posted 10/26/2015 2:00 pm Paid 20 cents for it because it looked like it might be old but I don't know much outside of US coins. Anybody have any ideas? The reverse is completely smooth. Thanks Report this Post to the Staff

zypronix New Member Sweden 47 Posts	Posted 10/26/2015 2:13 pm Looks to be an old British Victoria coin, around 1860~ How big is it and how much does it weigh? Report this Post to the Staff
jgettings00 Valued Member United States 149 Posts	Posted 10/26/2015 2:28 pm Thanks, Diameter is about 28mm and weight is .30 oz. I'm looking at photos on google, I don't see any with this type of bust and hanging ribbon in the hair. Report this Post to the Staff

tfred Pillar of the Community Canada 627 Posts	Posted 10/26/2015 8:08 pm If its almost the size of US quarter then Its more likely an old canadian quarter between 1858 and 1901. In that condition its only worth the melt value of around 2 bucks or less depending on how under weight it is. Report this Post to the Staff
sailoranna New Member United States 18 Posts	Posted 11/10/2015 02:55 am about 1/9 of the world was under victoria rule at the time, and she was around for like 80 years. would need to see the other side to have a guess. if its kinda thick then it might be a 1/2 penny from england. if its pretty thin, then a 1 cent from canada or a pice from india.
