South African 3p coins

Recommended Posts

Following on from my grandfathers Hoard......

A boot fair find would have been 1990's, 1933's up to 1953's.. theres some tarnish and what looks like undoing a screw with a few..

I know there's some 1960's Rands somewhere that came with the 3p's... I seem to think this was a haggle as they were believed to be silver... really hope to find these next....

I need to ask if the South African 3p worth keeping or move them on... I don't feel attached to them so its not a issue. thoughts views values? greatly appreciated.

many thanks "H"

I thought the early ones were 80% silver but possibly the later ones were devalued to 50%. They should all be silver I believe.
