djanoko New Member Gibraltar 3 Posts	Posted 04/30/2019 06:18 am Hi, Sorry, I am asking on behalf of a friend who has the coin, and I thought it said 1955 on it. I checked again and I also uploaded a picture of the front and the back of it. It turns out it's not older than 2005, but is part of a limited addition, and that's why my friend thinks it is valuable. Thanks for your opinions! Report this Post to the Staff
Hogarth Pillar of the Community United Kingdom 735 Posts	Posted 04/30/2019 06:34 am Hi again djanoko, Ah, I see now your friend may have misread the date 1755, commemorating Johnson's dictionary, as 1955. As to worth; face value only, I'm afraid. 50p. Report this Post to the Staff
PaddyB Pillar of the Community United Kingdom 945 Posts	Posted 04/30/2019 11:05 am Yes - welcome back @djanoko ! I agree with Hogarth - in that condition worth only face value. Even in top condition only worth a couple of pounds. Sorry to be a disappointment. Report this Post to the Staff

tokenscot Valued Member United Kingdom 82 Posts	Posted 08/09/2020 11:27 am Sorry to revive an old topic but I feel it is worth sharing my 1962 50p coin. Yes, people really did cut down half crowns to make fake 50p! Report this Post to the Staff
Princetane Pillar of the Community 4628 Posts	Posted 08/22/2020 11:21 pm I was going to respond to the newbie. Yes maybe we can be rude, but surely with the internet anyone with an IQ of 55 or more can look up a coin on the net. Numista has an excellent free catalogue. Asking for help is fine, but books are not kryptonite. Report this Post to the Staff
