    I have a Queen Victoria 1889 Halfpenny...what's this worth? (Pictures now up)

    I have a Queen Victoria 1889 Halfpenny right here and i'm wondering what it's value is. It is quite faded, but I can make it out to be this exact coin.

    7,748,000 were minted in bronze. In the grade of FINE this coins lists for only $1 retail in my Krause Standard Catalog of World Coins. Your coin grades ABOUT GOOD at best.

    Well for one thing the coin in the auction is an overdate - that means it's a different variety than your coin. But the primary reason is just what you said - the condition. It is the condition of a coin that establishes its value more than anything else.
