That looks (probably - it's very worn) a third bust London Mint issue. That would need to be at least Fine or near it to have any value.

However, there are a couple of interesting features on yours : the first L of GVLIELMVS has a dot within it and may have been struck over another letter. Also, where there should simply be a dot after GVLIELMVS there seems to be some kind of misstrike connecting the S to the dot. Whether this is enough to constitute excitement among varieties collectors is moot - there are many many errors in this series and they have to be a very clear and discernible punching error to warrant attention.

Wowww Peckris, thanks for that info, that's the type of stuff that i need for the History Diary i am keeping for the coins that i have. I will post a few now and again and maybe there'll be something someone likes !. By the way i like your Cartwheel Avatar, all the Cartwheels i have found have all been well worn or eroded. . . Thanks again for the knowledge, it is very very much appreciated . . Alan . . ;)
