I picked up a group of assorted British silver coins and my old price guide indicates these have little collector value. I wonder if our British coin specialists can suggest whether any of these are worth a premium? I'll take pictures if any warrant extra attention.

3 pence: 1881, 1886 (both low grade and damaged): 1909, 1917 (fine or better, no problems).

6 pence: 1899 (VG or so).

Shilling: 1859 (good); 2 X 1901 (F and VF).

Florin: 1903 and 1922 (F or better); 192? (very worn, could be 1920 or 1922?).

I would appreciate your input!

I don't know if they are worth a premium, but hey are a nice collection of coins, any one of which would fit nicely in my collection. Nice stuff, particularly the Floring 1903, which I have not seen before.

Melt at $40.67/oz = $34.6 or 21.85 pounds in silver.

I used to pay a little above spot silver for nice foreign coins. But I quit buying silver altogether in the last year or two. They would be worth a premium to me. However, as the price of silver goes up, the premium diminishes.

ie Would you rather sell at $10/oz and get a 40% premium, or sell at $40/oz with no premium?

I'd certainly rather have these in my silver hoard than an equivalent amount of 'junk' silver dimes or Kennedy halves. How about you?
