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

Condition Grades

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.


Half Groat or Silver Twopence

No values for twopence or half groat coins prior to 1668 are available

2d      1797c   proof                   500

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
