Right if i was trawling on ebay and i was looking at pennys or farthing can some people give me a few dates too look at and tell me what price to buy for and then sell on for would be much appreciated if someone would give me their time and take me under there wing much love <3

That's a 'how long is a piece of string?' question. No two coins are the same, some dates are more desirable than others and some denominations are more desirable than others. Coupled with the fact that not all desirable dates for one denomination are the same as those for a different denomination and you can easily see that there is no straightforward answer. The first thing you need to do is acquaint yourself with grades and grading. Get some experience in grading coins and see what they sell for when compared with references such as CCGB or Spink. ebay is not the best indicator of pricing because too many things sell for far more than they should and conversely so. In the case of pennies and farthings, 1849 is a good starting point, though you might take a while to get out of the blocks. Obviously the price to buy for needs to be lower than a selling price, but things starting at an elevated price on ebay frequently don't sell because most buyers are greedy. They want everything for 99p and consequently most will disregard the £100 coin priced at £75 BIN because they live in hope that the seller will give up trying to realise a decent price and offer them the chance of a real steal rather than a bargain. okay i shall have a good trawl through 1849 thanks for the advice my i aask what CCGB is an SPINK ?

Welcome Conor, my sons middle name is Connor Anyhoo, please feel free to post some pics of your coins. Can you maybe tell us how many there is roughly, we don't want you to go through all the trouble of posting everything, so maybe tell us the earliest dates and if there's not to many, then perhaps list what there is and we can have a look through and pick out what might be of value. Value is always down to grade, so don't get to upset if the coins are not worth great amounts. Will you collecting yourself now, or planning to sell them on? Well id like to start collecting going to send the database that i have made for them so you guys can have a look through if u have a better database that i could use please tell me as i made this myself
