markn Pillar of the Community Australia 1295 Posts	Posted 08/28/2009 10:36 pm There are proofs of that year but that isn't one. Its a worn circulation coin that grades VF perhaps. Worth $10-20. Report this Post to the Staff

latman100 Pillar of the Community Australia 1040 Posts	Posted 08/29/2009 05:26 am It will be fully struck up, with no signs of wear, which this coin has plenty of. Look especially at the crown on your coin, the bands are worn, the centre diamond is worn and is starting to touch the bands, on a proof, or even a higher grade coin you will see a distinct separation of the diamond from the bands. Also the overall flatness of the devices in your coin wont be evident. Have a look at these pictures and you will see what I mean about the detail. This is a proof 1930 penny. http://www.1930penny.com.au/photos.html Report this Post to the Staff
