Guinea coin value ?

Recommended Posts

Guest andrew

Hi everyone, I am new to this forum and would like to say hi first.

Just wondering if anyone could give me a value for the coin below, I found this with my metal detector recently, I have been told its worth £1650 but would like to know if this is correct.

What could I expect to get for it from a dealer or collector.

Thank you

Andrew

Take no notice of £1650! That's just someone quoting you the EF price from the Spink book!

That coin is not EF, more like VF, albeit an attractive VF. I'd offer £450 for it and hope to eventially sell it on for £600.

PM me if that sounds worth doing.

Hi and welcome!

What a fantastic find Andrew. I have resumed metal detecting recently - on some Norfolk farmland. Found nothing but old iron horseshoes and nails!

I hope you find some really nice stuff soon, you are in the right place for plenty of hammered coins.

Good luck.

Hi Andrew.

Nice coin and great find, but as Chris says definitely not a EF closer to VF.
