Since value is so dependent on condition, and there are two versions of that coin, clear pictures are the only way to estimate where it falls in the $2.50-200 spread.
Hi. I Have A 1844 Half Farthing. I Think It Is From Italy But I'm Not Sure. It Looks Like Someone Tried To Make It Into A Necklace Because It Has A Hole On Top. I Know The Hole On Top Will Probaly Hurt The Value. Does Anybody Know The Value? Thanks.
The denomination of the word Farthing would mean that this coin is very likely to be a Britsh or British colony coin. It seems like you have a bunch of coins up for question. You might want to get a copy of Krause, which you might be able to get it cheap for a second hand copy or who knows if your local library has it!
Looks like Queen Victoria young head not realy worth anything much with the hole drilled through it but a nice example if you intended to start a collection of British coinage :thumb: De Orc
Please don't start multiple threads about the same coin. With the hole it might be worth a buck to someone who collects holed coins, but with a mintage of 6,451,000, it is much too common to have any numismatic value at all to anyone but a specialist in holed coins. Undamaged F examples have a Krause value of only $2.50.
It's an English half farthing, legal tender there but really made for use elsewhere. Same with third farthings. Holed it has value as a curiosity only.
