This is my first post, and I need to ask a question about valuation and didn't really know anyone better than a coin forum! So the deal is, I was given a coin in Portsmouth on the queens Golden Jubilee. On that day I remember seeing the queen, but seeing as I was 10 years old at the time, I don't remember if it was her who gave it too me or not (Probably not). I have looked around and have not seen a coin the same as mine online, although I have seen similar. Below are some photo's. This coin is 100% as new and has never been played with, (mostly kept in the attic). And I am coming round to sell a lot of my items as I need to make room to move away from home. I was just wondering if this coin is anything special, if so what would a rough estimation of it's worth be? Or is it not worth selling? Thanks a lot!

The text at the bottom of the obverse side of the case reads "limited edition solid gilding metal" - "gilding metal" is a fancy name for "brass". Being so modern and not made of precious metal, I doubt it would be worth very much. I'm surprised this one sold for as much as 5 pounds on ebay UK. 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. Lewis Report this Post to the Staff
