goliath Posted April 21, 2010 Report Share Posted April 21, 2010 Hi, I was wondering if you guys could help me work out what coin this is. It is hard to make out the markings, I think it may be a queen victoria coin perhaps? It is very hard to see from the pictures as I don't have a suitable camera for close up shots I'm afraid. The bit's I have out lines are quite prominent in the flesh but haven't shown up properly in the photo's! I shall add photo's of the other side once I have managed to get a decent shot! Thanks in advance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mat25 Posted April 21, 2010 Report Share Posted April 21, 2010 That looks to me like a George II half penny from the 1740's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

goliath Posted April 22, 2010 Author Report Share Posted April 22, 2010 Thanks for the replies. Is there anyway I can restore it at all to make it look a little better? I can't imagine it's worth anything much in it's current condition? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mat25 Posted April 22, 2010 Report Share Posted April 22, 2010 No there isnt much you can do as its in bad condition, bu t you could always buy one in better condition on ebay, could probably pick one up for a couple of pounds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
