Howdy penny collector - Welcome to the Forum !! Exactly what kind of coin are you asking about - is it an 1831 penny from Great Britain ?
Wouldn't worry too much about the gold, but the silver - absolutely.
Rarity often has little to do with value. What matter is how many people want one and how much they are willing to pay. If you check the auction...

I think the coin has some wear, based on details I'd say AU55. As for the mark in the hair - it looks more like the result of a magic marker to...

We really need to see both sides to say. But based on the obverse, yes some are, some may be better. The one is damaged and would be considered a...
Howdy mmadis - Welcome to the Forum !! The answer to your question kind of depends on what you want to do with the coins. First of all, if they...
