    Welcome to Coin Talk. You have a 1961 British (UK) penny. They are very common.

    It's from Great Britain. Cool coin, but not worth very much.

    How did the size of the British Penny compare to the size of a US large cent?

    I'm not sure about the weight, but they seem lighter are a little larger, about the same diameter as a US half dollar.
