sel_69l Bedrock of the Community Australia 21788 Posts	Posted 05/30/2021 10:07 am If it weighs 57 grams, it is a British pure copper Twopence. Pure copper is soft. That is why it is so severely edge bumped. That is normal for these coins in this condition. G-VG grade. Report this Post to the Staff

Remember this coin would have bought a lot more in its day than any one modern coin. So only one of the old coins went a long way towards basic needs daily. A more modern example is that US Barber and early Walking Liberty halves are normally pretty worn down from usage. Back then .50 was a lot of money compared with today. So carrying one or two was no big deal in older times. But when .50 started to be worth a lot less, the number of heavier coins needed daly increased and people stopped carrying/using them. How much squash could a Sasquatch squash if a Sasquatch would squash squash?

PaddyB Pillar of the Community United Kingdom 945 Posts	Posted 05/30/2021 11:30 am As to value, not a great deal in that condition. Good ones can make £50 to £100 easily, but in that condition I would put it on my stall for no more than £5. Report this Post to the Staff
