Try Scanning it, if it won't scan do a rubbing of both sides and send the picture to a evaluation site - I am sure they will do one somewhere or the rubbings through the post.

Answer 7

At least 5 pounds.

Answer 8

Assuming you're referring to the ordinary "silver" cupronickel £5 coin issued since 1990, then £5.

Gold £5 coins have also been issued since 1980, and earlier in 1820, 1826, 1829, 1839, 1887, 1893, 1902, 1910, 1936, 1937, 1953, 1957, and these are worth a lot more than £5.

Answer 9

I'll give you £4.00 for it.

Answer 10

It is only worth five pounds I`m afraid!  Unless you go to a specialist coin dealer.  They may be able to help more.

Answer 11

You need to take it to a collector. You can also check coinsite.com or oldcoinshop.com, compare at least 3 or 4 offers.

Answer 12

You're better off going to a coin dealer and asking him. I collect coins, and it depends on the condition of the coin, whether it's mint or bullion, and if it's rare. The bank and shops will just give you face value, so don't take it there!

Answer 13

I will give you £5.01 for it......... DOH!

Answer 14

Answer 15

that relationship between my husband and chating woman

Answer 16

Answer 17

£5

Answer 18

May be say £5.00 at a guess, if it's legal tender..

Answer 19

£5 if you try to spend it

Anyway, they're pretty recent.

The Royal wedding (Charles and Diana) still had 25p coins

Answer 20

Well this is a really wild guess but I would say £5. And it can't be a very old one because they haven't been in circulation that long.

Answer 21

in morrisons there only worth 25p somebody tried to use one to pay for there petrol and thats what they were told .

Answer 22

I would say probably 500 pennies.

Answer 23

Five pound coins have only been issued for 18 years so it can't be that old (1990 was the first one). Before that the coin of the same size was a crown and therefore only worth 25 pence (5 shillings). However all the coins are fairly common - so they're not worth much more than face value especially if it is truly a five pound coin.

Answer 24
