These are the rare ones

The Penny:

1827 - George IV, 1843 (no colon after REG),

1860 (Copper), 1862 (small date like Half Penny),

1863 (die number by date), 1869, 1882 - Victoria,

1933 - George V

Their value is set by the collectors and their interest in auctions etc.

f you have any of these;

1837. 1843. 1849. 1860 bronze bun type is scarcer in certain varieties, the most commonly found is very common.

1861 as 1860. 1869. 1871. 1875H ('H' below date). 1895 with no sea. 1902 with low tide. 1912H ('H' Next to date).

1918H ('H' Next to date). 1918KN ('KN' Next to date). 1919H ('H' Next to date).

1919KN ('KN' Next to date). 1926 with newer head type. 1933* Pattern only. 1937* Edward VIII. 1950. 1951. 1954*

These are also worth some money by but again are subject to purchasers However, as a guide a 1933 penny (as above) brought a 80,000 GBP price whcih was paid by a collector

What old ENGLISH one pennies are worth money?

Old English one pennies that are particularly valuable include those minted before 1800, especially those from the reigns of notable monarchs like Edward I, Henry VII, and Elizabeth I. Coins in excellent condition or with rare mint marks can fetch higher prices. Additionally, certain varieties, such as the 1797 penny with a large "1" or the 1860 penny with the "H" mintmark, are sought after by collectors. Always consult a numismatic expert for accurate valuations.


What is an old English coin no longer used called?

An old English coin that is no longer used is called a "pound sterling," specifically referring to historical versions like the "sovereign" or "guinea." The guinea, worth 21 shillings, was widely used in the 17th and 18th centuries. Coins such as the "shilling" and "penny" have also become obsolete in their original forms. These coins are now considered collectibles or historical artifacts.


Why is the English coin called a 'farthing'?

A farthing was originally called a fourthing - The old English Penny was originally designed to be cut into four pieces in order to make change! Over the years, the word degraded into the modern spelling.AnswerActually, a farthing is a semantic shift of fourthing, from Old English feorðung, or fourth (quarter) of a penny. They were not cut into four, but minted as a coin with four to a penny (so a halfpenny, pronounced hay-penny, was worth two farthings).The confusion above may come about from pennies being cut into two or four, thus making halfpennies and farthings. They were used in Britain until 1960, at which time inflation had made them near valueless and a nuisance.


What is 'ope' in modern English?

Why is a 1945 penny worth so much?

Old coins are valuable because they're old and rare. The 1945 penny isn't worth remarkably more than other coins of its approximate age (in fact, it's worth a lot less than a 1944 steel penny, or a 1943 copper penny, both of which are extremely rare).
