Report Silver 1976 penny in British Coin Forums Posted July 23, 2016 Hey, new here. I have a 1976 British 1 pence coin that is silver instead of bronze. It looks like any other penny in every way except for colour, It is definitely not painted or coated. I've looked online for anything similar and came across this article http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-1201445/Grandmothers-rare-silver-1p-piece-net-thousands.html My coin looks exactly like the one in that link. Is the article a load of bs or do i have a coin worth a lot of money? I can't upload photos now, but can tomorrow. Does anyone know anything about this particular coin? Thanks
