If you're talking about the older issues called sovereigns, there are many valuable dates. See the Related Link for values (note - all prices are in £ sterling).

If you're referring to modern £1 coins, none of the standard issues are particularly valuable. Proof examples may be worth $15 to $30 in some cases, and of course special silver and piedfort proofs are worth more - $50 to $200.

The rare dates are as follows:

1847

1848

1852

1858 with BRITANNIAB error

1858 with the last 8 struck over a 6

1869

1882 (rarer than originally thought as the Royal Mint was closed for most of that year due to a change of machinery)

1893 with Jubilee Head

1942, 1943 and 1944 are scarce in mint state

1945 - most were melted down but it appears a handful exist - excessively rare

The are no nickel-brass dodecagonal (12 sided) British Threepences considered to be rare.

A date having a significantly higher collector value than all others would be the 1946 coin, especially in mint uncirculated condition.

There are no rare Sixpences from 1928.


What is the value of pre 1947 sixpences?

Sixpences minted between 1920 and 1946 were struck in 50% silver. They therefore have a scrap value by weight of approximately £14 per Troy Ounce (as at October 2010). In mint state they have a collectors' value or numismatic value. Dealers often offer a multiplier of the face value for them i.e. at the moment 10 times their face value would be an approximation. Sixpences struck before 1920 i.e. 1919 and earlier were struck in 92.5% silver and will fetch almost double. There are rare dates of course, 1893 with the Victoria jubilee head recently fetched £5,250 in mint state due to its rarity.

How much is a silver through pence 1941 worth?

A 1941 silver threepence is only 50% silver (assuming for a moment we are talking about British coins) and as such is really only worth a bit less than a dollar in scrap silver. 1941 isn't a rare year for British silver threepence, however, mint state examples are desirable and can bring a sizable premium over silver scrap.


Are pre 1965 quarters rare?

They aren't rare, they are, however 90% silver and worth a bit over $5 each at the time of writing in silver content alone. Many, many, many, pre-1965 quarters were made but simply the fact they were made out of silver is what makes them valuable. Now, there are, of course, some rare years of silver quarters, but there are also very common dates (like 1964).
