What is the value of a 1942 British Threepence with a blank back?

There is no documented evidence of a 1942 Threepence with a blank reverse, but any genuine minting defect or irregularity would increase the value of the coin. A British 1942 Threepence (was only minted for Colonial use), uncirculated and in absolute mint condition could fetch up to £40 GBP. If it has been circulated but still in good condition, it might fetch up to £5 to £15 GBP. A British 1942 Threepence (dodecagonal - nickel brass), uncirculated and in absolute mint condition could fetch up to £7 GBP. If it has been circulated but still in good condition, it might fetch up to £2 GBP. A reputable coin dealer will be able to give a more accurate valuation.

The rarest general circulation Australian Threepence, as distinct from the most valuable, would be the 1942 Threepence minted in Melbourne of which there were 520,000 minted.
