A collection is difficult to evaluate sight unseen. Silver Threepences ceased to be minted in 1945, and the 1942 to 1945 coins were only minted for colonial use, so presumably you have a collection of dodecagonal nickel brass Threepences without the 1947 coin, which was not minted. Are the coins circulated, uncirculated or Proof? Based on the assumption that your Threepence collection consists of circulated dodecagonal nickel brass coins in excellent condition, you might get up to £130 GBP. I suggest that you take your collection to a reputable coin dealer will be able to give a more accurate valuation.
The dodecagonal (12 sided) British brass Threepence was first issued in 1937. The Edward VIII coins dated 1937 were never released into circulation and were melted down. Some coins given to vending machine manufacturers for testing purposes, were never returned. The official first release of the brass Threepence was in 1937 with George VI.
There were no British Shillings dated 1952 issued for general circulation. There are 2 Proof coins thought to exist, one is in the Royal Collection, the other possibly in the Royal Mint museum.
British coins struck and dated 1877 include the - Sovereign (22 carat gold) Half-Sovereign (22 carat gold) Halfcrown (sterling silver) Florin (sterling silver)(dated mdccclxxvii in Roman numerals in lieu of 1877) Shilling (sterling silver) Sixpence (sterling silver) Threepence (sterling silver) Penny (bronze) Halfpenny (bronze) Farthing (bronze)(minted as a proof coin only, not for circulation) Last but not least, the Maundy set of sterling silver coins including 4d, 3d, 2d and 1d (not for circulation).
I'm assuming that you mean British and not US coins.British silver coins dated 1919 and before are sterling (92.5% silver)While British silver coins dated 1920-1946 are 50% silver.No British coin has been struck for circulation in silver dated 1947-present.For the sterling coins:Threepence - 0.0420 of a troy ounceSixpence - 0.0895Shilling - .1682Florin -.3364Half-Crown - .4206Crown - .8409For the 50% silver coinsThreepence - .0227Sixpence - .0455Shilling - .0909Florin - .1818Half-Crown - .2273In order to calculate the current values you need to multiply the silver price by the silver content. For example if silver was valued at $30 an oz and you had a 50% silver threepence, you would take 30 times .0227 which gives you a value of about 68 cents.
The last British One Guinea coin struck for circulation was dated 1813.
no but coins dated before 1965 are
Sixpences have been minted for hundreds of years. Sixpences from the past 120 years of some value would include 1952, 1905, 1904, 1893, 1892, 1887. The value is associated with mint uncirculated coins. Circulated coins would have a significantly lower value.
There were no British 1/2p, 1p or 2p general circulation coins struck in 1972 because so many 1971 dated pieces had been struck to facilitate decimalisation. However, regular issues resumed in 1973. The only copper/bronze British 1972 coins that were struck were Proof FDC coins.
Yes. they are still coins
One question at a time please. Answers to all of your coins should appear in WikiAnswers if you use the format - What is the value of a 1910 British Penny
Not much I'm afraid. The set, which comes in a blue wallet and contains Five and Ten Pence coins dated 1968 and Half, One, and Two Pence coins dated 1971, is valued at about US$2.00 according to the Standard Catalog of World Coins.
This is a beautiful silver coin of course - I bought one in very fine condition for $25 in the year 2000. eBay is probably your best bet if you are seeking to buy one. Your local precious metals dealer probably wouldn't give you any more than the silver value if you wanted to sell it - maybe $10-$15.
