1800s or 1900s i'd say! :D Probably 1900s.
I knew they'd be expensive! The figures you quoted came as no surprise to me. You should not have mentioned the STIEFNE one you know, i have to...
I'm thinking a few thousand pounds per coin? Am i close? Making Athelstan pennies a walk in the park. (And yes i collect those).
