Sap Moderator Australia 16810 Posts	Posted 04/01/2006 09:12 am From the 2004 (4th ed) Krause. Note: lowest grade given in Krause is "Fine": 1864 Farthing (g): $1 or so 1875h " (xf): $14 1899 " (xf): $6 1866 Half Penny (f): $2.50 1890 " (g): $1 or so 1899 " (g): 50c or so 1806 Penny (vf): $10 1874 " (g): there are 4 varieties of 1874 London mint pennies: thick and thin ribbons, large and small date. $5 to $15 or so 1877 " (vf) two varieties, large date $9.50 and small date $300 1889 " (f): $2.50 1893 " (f): $2.50 1900 4 Penny (unc): must be Maundy? - $15.00 1893 Shilling (vf): $7.50 1850 Half Crown (g): $20 or so France 1855 5 centimes (g): there are seven mintmark-varieties for this coin. Most are just a dollar or two. There was also a change of engraver-general's privy marks that year (dogs-head and anchor are your options) - 14 varieties total. Don't say "infinitely" when you mean "very"; otherwise, you'll have no word left when you want to talk about something really infinite. - C. S.

habiru001 Valued Member United States 236 Posts	Posted 04/02/2006 9:26 pm Hello SAP- I have collected GB (UK) for a number of years and I had a heck of a time getting the 1900 4pence in Unc. That was the last coin needed to complete my Victoria Type set. I purchasded a Maundy set in order to acquire that one coin. Then in going through my inventory, I discovered that I already had this 4 pence- Boy I was a bit upset--(had it all the time) So I do have an uncirculated 1900 Maundy set available if anyone out there is interested. My cost for the set was 149.00 from a dealer in the state of Washington. ALL to say this- If you are going to really get into British coinage, I suggest that you invest in the Standard Catalong of Great Britain Coins. Much more detail and added history for many of the coins. This book is known as Coincrafts' Standard Catalouge of English and UK Coins- I have found it to be well worth my cost- (less that Krauss) -Kight XXVIII Report this Post to the Staff
