1925 canadain penny
the last time i saw my nephew he told me he was collecting old Penny's so i started to look in my change for king george pennys to keep for him. that was 10 years ago and unfortunately i havent seen him sence then.
i have a bunch of canadain pennys from the 1940's, a few from the 1930's,and one 1925 canadian penny for him, as well as these coins from central america. i know the condition is important, but i would really appreciate a ballpark estimate if possible.
thanks for the help chas cyr

Coin values are affected by rarity and demand, but "condition. condition, condition" is king. Ranges from Fine to Uncirculated according to a fairly recent issue of the Standard Catalog of World Coins are not necessarily what a dealer would charge, but they do provide a ballpark:

$1.25-55

10¢-$1

$4-30 (BU)

66¢-$2.50

$1.20-5

$3.47-25 (BU)

$3-55 (BU)

66¢-$3

$18-550 (MS63)

 

thanks for the information, i am pleased to find some of the coins i collected for my nephew are worth more than face value. i wonder if you could educate me a little more, are these coins silver? i have some central american coins that are definitely copper, could you ballpark these coins?

"Penny" is a British denomination. 1/100 of dollar is a "cent".

A "D/S" mintmark results from a Denver mark being punched over a pre-existing San Francisco mark. These are quite rare.

The Standard Catalog does not explain what it is referring to as "Type I" and "Type II". Only the Type I coins are listed at more than $1,000, and my assumption has always been that they are the extremely rare - virtually never seen - steel cents with the 1944 date and the repunched mintmark, but as I am not a collector of US coins, I can give no assurance about the accuracy of that assumption. There is no reference to such a valuable coin in my old edition of the US Redbook.
