    I just saw these four Penny coins & thought what the heck, let’s start a Great Britain Penny type set. These four coins are PCGS graded 62RB, 63RB, 63RB, and 64RB. Now my task is to find equally attractive Penny coins from the years prior & after. Wish me luck. Any advice you have regarding putting together the type set would surely be appreciated.

    Very best regards,

    Nice coins , always like the ones with Queen Victoria . Wonder if English collectors get upset if someone calls them a cent ?

    I was just waiting for someone to jump in and say it was a "cent".

    Very nice coins! Thalia Elizabeth especially approves of the 1900 Penny-- as it's 100 years older than she is. (We have one too, but not as high a grade.)

    Well for ones minted since 1971 I guess the term's technically correct lol... though I've never heard anyone call them that.

    They sure are a nice collection of pennies;)
    Are you planning on getting only slabbed??

    I'm sure that I'll be buying both slabbed and raw coins. I'll try to post photos of the coins as I add to this set.

    You resurrected my old thread.

    I found these three coins soon after. They had been stored in brown paper envelopes in an old-time collection. The envelopes had a soft cloth lining. I was very happy when I took these three coins from the envelopes & found them to be so bright.
