What is the value of a 1936 Edward VIII penny? |
[Edit] |
Answer
Assuming you are referring to a British penny, 1936 coins were never issued for Edward VIII, only for George V. Pattern coins were prepared with the 1937 date but they were never struck for general circulation due to Edward's abdication. Since the patterns have never been put on the open market there's no real way to assign a value.
A few British colonies such as New Guinea *did* issue Edward VIII coins in 1936. The New Guinea pieces are surprisingly common and retail for less than $4 U.S.
