In the year 1960, a friend and I were at fair ground on Woolwich common. We were both young avid coin collectors. We were playing on the penny coin machines and every time we won, we would check the dates on the pennies. I will never forget our faces when we saw a 1952 penny among the coins. I said to my friend. " Keep it in your back pocket" It was in the evening, somehow, he had lost it during the excitement of the evening. This is a true story, and my friend genuinely lost it. He felt terrible and never stopped apologizing ever after. I can still see that coin in my mind's eye.
Also, you state the first pre decimal penny is from 1860. The first pre decimal BRONZE penny is from 1860! The first pre decimal penny is from 1797 (Cartwheel issue), so that would include the very rare COPPER 1860 penny, with a mintage of 32,256. I narrowly missed out on one in the 1990's - VF for £185 !!
Interesting video - the 1864 penny, like that of 1869, has a higher quoted mintage than others, but in practice is much harder to find especially in higher grades and commands a premium. The 1875H penny is also elusive and worthy of a mention, having a reported mintage of just 752,640. Then there is the 1882 without the H, not to mention the multitude of varieties, especially of the 1860 penny, but that, of course, is another story worthy of a video of its own!
Nice video, thanks. As you mentioned at the end with the 1869 penny, there are some very rare pennies with unknown mintages. You could include the 1882 with no H mint mark for example. Then of course you could disappear down the rabbit hole of varieties, The 1922 with the 1927 reverse comes to mind, but you probably did well to steer clear of those!
@@mavissmith2153 there is no 1799 penny but there are halfpennies. Coins of this era are large and can be confused with a penny. Value of any coin is strongly related to condition.
I have all the Victorian ones including 1869, but not any of the later coins except 1953. The last 3 really are out of all of our hands unless they find massive hoards of them buried in some bunker!
American here. I bought an ngc graded ms-62 1880 penny and it has to be my favorite coin to own. Hopefully one day I will have an army of high grade victoria pennies : )
Why do all you Americans depend on that NGC 'slabbing' rubbish?? They have absolutely NO idea how to grade a coin. I commonly see gradings by them like EF (not XF rubbish!), when a coin is more likely to be VF! I've heard some idiots get their coins 'slabbed', then 'clean' the coin, and send it off again, in the hope of a higher grade!! What total FANTASY.
I inherited a coin collection, an he had to hobby’s coin an metal detecting 😂 so when I saw these coins with his description written with them saying low tide an high tide, I thought that was where he had found them.😂😂😂🤷🏻♂️
I have the 1950, 1951 and 1953 pennies. But the one that I felt was missing was the 1926 modified effigy penny. Although it is listed at being minted at about 4,900,000 like the standard 1926 penny, it's true figure is between 50,000 and 100,000. And I have one 😁
The 1954 has a mintage of TWO! You've missed out the 1863 with Die number Below Date, and more importantly, the Edward VIII of 1937!! I also have a Colour picture, from a catalogue, of the UNIQUE 1952 Penny, AND its Obverse too! And in the same catalogue, the UNIQUE 1808 Penny!! People also talk about the rarest Crowns, but they don't seem to know about the 1879.
I have a selection of pennies 1870, 1900, some from Edward Vll but several covering each year from around 1908 to 1920 and some beyond. Also, George Vl and Elizabeth ll. Have no idea of any value they might have or where to go to get them valued. I'm in Sheffield.
@@BitsAndBobsCoins What I meant was - you showed the correct mintage of 3,000,831 - but you said 3 million, 831 thousand - can you spot the mistake?...
@@BitsAndBobsCoins seen on allcoin valuers that the H king George V or penny Coin dealers price E.F £65 the 1922 be penny Coin I don't know have to check it out Bob let you know the dealers price ok from peter

Oh no 😱
That is an amazing yet tragic story 😲
The mintage for the 1953 Penny is 1,308,400. There were Proofs with a mintage of 40,000. This is the CORRECT facts!

We have a video that is focusing on mint marks this was just about the coin mintage itself
Like . Thank"s for info . I have 1951 , 1953 pennies in my collection , also 1875, 1877, 1890 .... 1912 - H , 1918 - H ... my work must go on ....
Happy Collecting
