It is stressed that the following prices are a guide only, and in UK pounds. I can take no personal responsibility for their accuracy, although every effort has been made to ensure that they have been copied correctly.
The information has generally been taken from the UK monthly magazine Coin News, and is reproduced by the kind permission of
Token Publishing Ltd, PO Box 14, Honiton, Devon EX14 9YP, UK
The headings F, VF, EF and Unc refer to the condition grades of the coins. A guide to evaluating grades is found on my UK Coin Values Index page.
Proof coins relatively often found are listed, but the absence of a mention does not mean that a proof of that year does not exist.
No values for twopence or half groat coins prior to 1668 are available

Extracted from Coin News November 2003
The lack of a value for a grade means either that the coin is rarely found in that grade or that its value is less than £1.
If you have a silver twopence coin with a date not listed, you may find it listed as part of a Maundy Set.
Quick find by reign:
Charles II : James II : William & Mary : William III : Anne : George I : George II : George III : George IV : William IV : Victoria

I would be grateful if you could search the site carefully before mailing me - the answers to the great majority of the questions that I am asked can be found on this site, and I am unlikely to reply quickly to such questions. In particular, I do NOT provide a valuation service.
If you have done this and still wish to ask for advice, feel free to mail me via my Advice page but please do not send me unsolicited scans or other binary files.
