Hi,

I inherited this gold penny unfortunately as my Nan died and I'm just wondering if it's worth anything. I have no idea about coins so any information would help. I'm not gonna sell it anyway because it was my nans but just wondering how I should treat it and where I should store it (safe)

I tried to use the image uploader but couldn't seem to make my images smaller than 300kb so I uploaded the pictures to a free image hoster.

Did you try the Free Image Optimizer? The problem with the free image hosts is that the images tend to disappear.

Eh he just wants a value on the penny sadly pennies are not worth much, unless rare dates. If I had to guess 10 to 45 depending on the buyer (very good for jewellery piece). NOTE ONLY GOLD PLATED, which is some that is covered in a thin layer of gold.

Hi Aus45 and welcome to the forum! As ryurazu said, it is just a common penny that has been gold plated to become a souvenir so there's not much value in it.

To give an indication of value see https://www.coincity.com.au/penny/6...ny-each.html and https://www.quicksales.com.au/ad/au...ule/11011649 and https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/C20-194...331542712231
... but then as a keepsake to your nan, invaluable!

Yep,little value other than curiosity piece.
Guy on ebay has been selling various gold plated Penny dates on/off for the last couple of years and gets $2-3 for them unless they are a rare date or variety.

Thank you very much everyone. I didn't think it was worth much but wanted to ask people who know what they're looking at.

Thanks everyone for your time I really appreciate it!
