Bill,
  How much is the British 1952 6d. going for these days over there in England? I found that coin extremely elusive until one came my way early last year.

I still have my British 1827,1950,1951,& 1970 1d. coins that I picked up over the past 5 years.

Hi Aidan.

The only prices that I have are from Coin Yearbook 2007, below, but I have the 2010 edition on order so ask me again in a few weeks time.

1952 6d (1,013,477 issued)  F £4,  VF £10,  EF £28,  UNC £70
I hope that yours is UNC!!!

1827 1d (1,451,520)  F £100,  VF £350,  EF £1100, UNC ----  or did you mean -
1927 1d (60,989,561)  F --,  VF £2,  EF £8,  UNC £32
1950 1d (240,000)  F £4,  VF £8,  EF £18,  UNC £28  or Proof (17,513)  £25
1951 1d (120,000)  F £5,  VF £1,  EF £25,  UNC £50  or Proof (20,000)  £30
1970 1d sounds very interesting!

Despite the prices, an Uncirculated 1950 penny is harder to find than a 1951 one!

By the way, current UK coin prices are given on my website at http://www.coins-of-the-uk.co.uk/values/index.html

Apologies to those who dislike references to external sites :)

I refer to your site several times each week and find it very useful and well laid out.   The occasional reference to it in these pages is always worthwhile and I consider it as an adjunct to this forum for UK matters.   The two work well together.

I think that what many here (certainly myself) are against is the advertising of other groups.   Yours is a very informative site run by 'one of our members' and therefore I consider reference to it to be legitimate, as I do the Royal Mint site.
