jimlinzi   10 #1 Posted April 5, 2011 We have a largeish collection passed on from my Dad lots of three pennys from 1937-1957, lots of one pennys from 1937-1967, a very heavy Britanina 1797 Georgius 111 D.G.rex we have several of these and lots of small knackered looking coins. We cannot look on e-bay and in books as some of the coins have no writting etc or very faint does anyone know who we could take these to ????????????????????????????????

NotInUse   10 #2 Posted April 5, 2011 http://www.coincommunity.com  There's a section on the forum where you can post pictures of the coins and the experts that frequent the site will try and identify them. I had a couple of coins that I couldn't identify and they sorted me out in no time! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
GrannyGranny   10 #3 Posted April 5, 2011 Look like the 1797 Georgius might be worth a bit.  http://wiki.answers.com/Q/What_is_the_value_of_a_1797_British_Georgius_III_DG_REX_coin_no_denomination_with_a_sculpture_of_Britannia_made_of_brass_or_copper  Look at post no. 8 on this thread  http://www.sheffieldforum.co.uk/showthread.php?t=94462 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

the_watcher   10 #8 Posted April 6, 2011 Unless a coin is extremely rare, generally collectors are after mint condition. So the badly worn ones won't be worth anything. If the GIII 1797 coins are cartwheel pennys, they may have a little value. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

gnvqsos   10 #11 Posted July 20, 2011 Cannot get hold of you, any chance we could have our £25.00 ?????????????????????????????????????????????????  Apparently many coins were lost to funding of the French Revolution.A lot of todays coins eg the 2p are worth a lot for scrap value,and they also can be used in Chinese slot machines as they re the same size as the Yuan (King Size)coin-apparently many laundrettes accept these for tumble drying.
