Really good find Chris.

The numbers as far as 15/16 are a bit dated but still Scarce.

Hat off  :D

A very nice find indeed Chris. Next one up at LCA estimates £750 - £1500, so a hefty profit for just 20p :D

Both pennies, excellent !!

Wonderful finds, The 1909 is one of the rarest currency pennies. Time has proven that this variety outranks many other rarities.

I'm suprised the 1909 is that rare. I've got one in about Fair but they do come up on ebay once in a while.
