You seem to have a mix of Irish decimals, UK decimals and €uros (as well as that Canadian!). The UK one is indeed that 2p, second from the left,...
The 1882H ½d has a mintage of 4,480,000. Value in F is about £4 ($6). The 1947 1d has a mintage of 2,220,000. Value in F or VF is less than £1...
jello, True enough! I suspect that even though George III was mad (crazy) at the time, he probably still had something to say about it! btw -...
I like to get halves and dollars and use them for small transactions too. Not had many problems - I'd say the halves cause more consternation;...
When I got home, I checked these links out (as I can't view Flikr or other photo site pics from work) ... I have to say the William IV and...
You're very welcome! It seems (I didn't know this until I read the site) that NZ coins had shrunk in the same way that the 5p/10p coins did in...
I think they're also reasonably available in Boston for use in its subway system. I know that stamp machines tend to vend these coins as change -...
The problem with some of the UK MM'd coins is that for some years, the split of mintages for mintmarked and the regular issue is not available....
Absolutley - the good old infallible law of supply & demand!
The New Zealand mint is a private bullion company. Generally, the Royal Mint or Canadian Mint produces coins for NZ. However, try this site to...
Well, it's just another coin to add to a collection, for it was only on the dates I listed that pennies had mintmarks. Apart from these, and...
A lot is supply and demand. I have a very rare UK coin - a 1934 "Wreath" Crown (5/-), of which just 932 were minted. Now, it's worth probably...
You're welcome! The 4 pennies I could see were very nice - couldn't see the pics on the copper (but they'd be great to see, I bet)! Any info you...
Here's a great price guide for UK pennies: http://www.coins-of-the-uk.co.uk/values/penny.html Updated pretty regularly. All UK pennies from...
No UK coins for Edward VIII were issued. Some were prepared, and a very small number of proof sets were produced. Most of the designs were...
Ditto! It's very hard, isn't it? I haven't sold any of mine yet, either - for the very same reason! However, I think I may sell some...
The 1921 is a particularly hard date to get with decent strike, and it looks like you have one. For some reason, pennies of the era 1914 - 1921...
Collect, Very nice! I collect by date, and mostly C20th; I have all 1d coins from 1910 on in gEF or better, and a couple of other Edward VII and...
I agree. When I bought the 2002 and 2005 proof sovereigns, the plastic insert in the cardboard holders came out very easily (it was out of the...
As clinne says, the original packaging is flimsy plastic. I'd be tempted to put it into a nicer holder myself. I don't think there'd be any...
