Anything from scrap to over £1K, it all depends on the condition. You would have to post a picture.

There aren't many worth £1000! I've never seen one. I've got bronzed proof 1797 1d and 2d at the moment, and they are probably worth £1000 for the pair, but they are very special indeed. 99% of them are worth less than £5.

You could change the upper value to £38K ish based on the P1311 in the Evans descendants' sale. There's only one of those.

Forget that one.

Must remember not to try to communicate after pub.

Hi

Your 2d is in fact a 1d and in NF condition....value maybe £5 to £12.

All 3 coins appear to have been cleaned...which lowers their values.

Regards

Peter

I was just about to reply when Peter jumped in! Confirm it's a penny. All the coins have been cleaned which is unfortunate, so in that condition I would say, maybe £2-£3; probably worth £8-£9 uncleaned.

I would suggest (without confirming evidence) that bronzed proofs are not the rarest 1797s, though I'd certainly love to have one. I think a genuine BU currency 1797 twopence is incredibly rare (I've never seen one, though I have seen bronzed proofs), and would quite probably realise £1K at least, at auction.

Just as a rider Chris - I do believe your prices for 1797s have always been on the low side! Especially the EF and Unc values.

Yes I think the bronzed proof are the commonest of (all at least 'very rare') proof cartwheels. Do you want it?

I had a nice AUNC, very nearly UNC 2d once. Had a bit of lustre in the low bits and around the inside of the raised rim. A BU circulation piece, that would be pretty much impossible to find!

What do you want for it? (My own currency twopence sounds identical to the one you used to have! I got mine in - I think - 1997 or 1998, when did you offload yours?)

[Chris Perkins 228]

Only a couple of years ago.

£500 for the 2d, or £800 for the 2d and it's bronzed 1d mate. I can have them sent to you on approval if you like. The 1d has slight signs of green, but I don't think it's terminal. Neither seem to have been stored properly and have sweated in PVC causing the odd toning spot. The 1d also has a slight rub on Britannia's breast. The 2d is much better with no wear. They have different allignment, too. I suppose I should get some pics done.

Pictures would be good.

I've seen that those around Fine seem to go for around 15-30 GBP depending on the weather. EKs are of importance as these are the heaviest coins produced for UK circulation - like Pyataks! - 56.7 grams on minting.
