There are only two British Queen Victoria Shilling coins that rate a "rare" classification, and that depending on who you choose to listen to.
A variant of the 1861 Shilling. The reason for the rarity is not clear.
Some 1863 Shillings have the "3" stamped over a "1".
Should you have one of these "rarities", a reputable coin dealer will be able to assist you with identifying it properly and giving a valuation based on inspection of the coin.
