What is the value of a 1740 British Penny?

Answer 1

A British 1740 silver Penny (KG II), circulated but still in good condition, might fetch anything from £8 to £55 GBP.

NOTE - The reverse of these coins is upside down to the obverse. This is normal. 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.
