Great Britain 6 Pence 1838 to 1887 Hello Ashley -- Look at the beautiful coin in the picture. It is from eBay seller wybrit and is in fully uncirculated condition with very pleasant gold-green toning. Wybrit has this coin at auction starting at $450 US dollars. That is a lot of money, but it is a lot of coin. It is certified by PCGS, the premier numismatic grading service. Your specimen, with stains and nicks, will be worth substantially less, especially since it is not certified by a numismatic service. The amount less depends on the serverity of the stains and nicks.

Here are some typical values:

worn: $8 US dollars approximate catalog value
average circulated: $15
well preserved: $100
fully uncirculated: $350

There are some 'better dates' that command better value than most, and you might have one of those better dates. The better dates are:

1848: $200
1854: $200
1862: $100
1863: $100

CoinQuest thanks wybrit for use of their nice coin photo.
