The bright appearance of a bronze British Penny is frequently mistaken for gold by some.
If indeed it is gold plated, the thin layer of gold would not add much to the coin which normally weigh 9.45 grams.
If it was not plated with anything -
A British 1967 bronze Penny (Elizabeth II), uncirculated and in absolute mint condition could fetch up to £0.25 GBP.
A reputable coin dealer will be able to give a more accurate valuation.
A plated coin renders it worthless to a collector. If you can get the gold off it, you might get something for the gold.
A British 1967 silver Maundy Penny (QE II), uncirculated and in absolute mint condition could fetch up to £20 GBP.
The values quoted are the best possible for the best specimens in their grades, but may be significantly lower due to varying demand for the coin and the prevailing economic climate. A reputable coin dealer will be able to give a more accurate valuation based on inspection of the coin.
There was never a 12 Penny coin minted.
Modified coins have no collector value.
Neither U.S. nor British pennies were made of silver. Your coin is almost certainly plated, which would mean it's only worth face value.
All 1967 general circulation British Pennies were made from bronze. If you have a silver Penny, it will be because somebody has plated it. Alternatively, the British Maundy Penny is a very much smaller coin than the traditional Penny and is made from sterling silver.
There are no British general circulation Pennies made from cupro nickel, from 1860 to 1967 they were all made from bronze. If you have a cupro nickel penny, it has been plated and is worthless as a collectible.
No. All British Pennies from 1860 to 1967 were made from bronze. If you have a gold One Penny coin, it would be because somebody has gold plated it.
From 1860 to 1967, the British bronze Penny was 30.81 mm in diameter.
A particularly nice one might sell for a dollar.
A silver penny in mint condition is typically worth around $5-$20 to collectors, depending on the specific type and rarity. A penny from 1967 with a silver front and a goldish looking back may be a novelty coin that has been altered or plated, and would likely be worth only face value as a regular penny.
1 cent. It's plated. If you think about it for, oh, a second or two, would it make sense for the Mint to make pennies out of gold that would be worth $50 or $60, then put them out in change for a penny?
All British bronze Pennies from 1860 to 1967 have the words "ONE PENNY" on the reverse.
The last Australian Penny was minted in 1964.
Face value the date is still in circulation.
During the 1960's, the old British Penny was minted from 1961 to 1967, the last ever in 1967. Uncirculated and in absolute mint condition, they could fetch anything from £0.25 to £2 GBP depending on the year. If it has been circulated, not much.
