What is the value of a coin one side has Georgius III with a small circle under his bust with fraction 6 in it other side has crown on top of globe and 1807 near crown?

Answer 1

It is copper and either a Halfpenny or a Farthing.

A British 1739 Halfpenny, circulated but still in good condition, might fetch anything from £12 up to £300 GBP. A British 1739 Farthing, circulated but still in good condition, might fetch anything from £10 up to £250 GBP. A British 1739/5 Farthing, circulated but still in good condition, might fetch anything from £80 up to £250 GBP. A reputable coin dealer will be able to give a more accurate valuation.

Answer 2

George III was from the House of Hanover and your coin is a Hanoverian 1/6th Thaler from Brunswick and is silver. The obverse inscription is GEORGIUS.III.D.G.BRITANNIARUM.REX.F.D. with a right facing bust of George III and the letters G and M either side of the 1/6 in the circle. The reverse inscription is BRUNS.&.LUN.DUX.S.R.I.A.TH.&.ELECT.1807. The "globe" is a Coat of Arms surrounded by a garter and is Crowned. The letters N.D.R.F and F.SILB. appear in an arc below the Crowned Coat of Arms. Hopefully having successfully identified the coin, I am unable to give you a valuation, but will pass your question onto somebody who can.

Answer 3

A 1937 British coin with a shield on the reverse could be either a Crown or a Halfcrown.

The Crown has a crowned shield with a lion on one side and a unicorn on the other. It will also have CROWN : 1937 across the bottom.

The Halfcrown has a shield with a crown either side of it. It will also have HALF CROWN : 1937 across the bottom.

Answer 4

Your coin is either British copper Halfpenny of a Farthing.

The Halfpenny is about 30mm in diameter -

A British 1773 copper Halfpenny (George III), circulated but still in good condition, might fetch anything from £10 to £225 GBP.

A British 1773 copper Halfpenny (George III)(no stop after REX), circulated but still in good condition, might fetch anything from £15 to £260 GBP.

A British 1773 copper Halfpenny (George III)(no stop on reverse), circulated but still in good condition, might fetch anything from £15 to £260 GBP.

The Farthing is about 24mm in diameter -

A British 1773 copper Farthing (George III), circulated but still in good condition, might fetch anything from £10 to £180 GBP.

A British 1773 copper Farthing (George III)(no stop after REX), circulated but still in good condition, might fetch anything from £20 to £230 GBP.

A British 1773 copper Farthing (George III)(no stop on reverse), circulated but still in good condition, might fetch anything from £12 to £230 GBP.

NOTE - The reverse of these coins is upside down to the obverse. This is normal.

The values quoted are the best possible for the best specimens in their grades, but may be significantly lower due to varying demand for the coin and the prevailing economic climate. A reputable coin dealer will be able to give a more accurate valuation based on inspection of the coin.

Answer 5

The only two British Coins issued in 1773 were the gold Guinea and the Half-Guinea coins and neither of them have all or part of that inscription. It is possibly a French coin from Normandy.

Answer 6

That could be almost any British gold or silver coin minted in 1817.

Metal and diameter of coin would be helpful.

Answer 7

Your coin is most likely a gold Guinea or a fractional Guinea.

Knowing the diameter of the coin would help to identify it.

Is the "crest" spade shaped with a crown on it?
