Very Worn 1882 with strange stampings

Recommended Posts

Hi everyone, new here. Have a pile of old coins given to me and I have tryed my best to find out is this 1882 coin a H or not, its very worn so it more than likely is a H but I want to be certain. Spent ageous comparing it even used magnifier but no use. It also has strange stampings of 404 around it which is confusing?

Also have a 1922 coin in what seems very condition, Ill upload a pictue of that also just wondering what you would consider of its condition?

Anyway thanks for any insight you may have.

*Bump*

Does that link work anyone?

Thanks

There are some giveaway signs for the "no" H the Penny boys will let you know.

Best thing you could do with your coin is drill a hole and use it as a washer B)

The strange stamping of 404 around it refers to the fact that your linked page can't be found ;)

It could be the first recorded use of the 404 error? :)

The 1922 is the ordinary version (a rare version exists), in GVF condition.

Glad SOMEONE got my little joke!

The 1882H is simply a curio - worth keeping if you like that kind of thing, but no particular value (the H would normally be under the date between the two 8s, where yours is too worn to see it). The 404 has been stamped on it by a previous owner. The 1922 penny is in an acceptable grade as a space filler, and a cut above the sort of hoarded rubbish leftover from the 60s. It's in GVF grade, probably valued at a pound or two. You'd want a minimum EF though as a collector, but it looks nice.

The photos are fine, but the 1882 has no value in that condition and the 1922 is worth little more than a few pounds. Sorry

I thought as much, thanks. Any idea why its stamped? Someone messing with it years ago maybe?
