Question

Georgivs V Dei Gra:Britt:omn:rex:fid:def:ind:imp: (all caps...) it is from 1932 anyone know if it's worth anything?

Answer 1

You have a George V penny from Great Britain dated 1932. I would say you are not British for the image on the reverse of the coin is a woman seated next to a shield holding a trident. It is Britannia a revered symbol of Great Britain. It means the same to them as the Statue of Liberty means to us Americans. You have a coin that had a relatively small mintage for the coins minted in the 1930's to early 1940's. the mintage was 8,278,000. Here in the U.S. it still can be picked up in a dealers world coin box for .25-.50 cents. In GB it would be worth more and to a collector who wants it, it would be worth more. When it comes to most world coins one needs to find the right buyer to get what the coin is worth. Few people in the U.S. collect GB cents as well as few in GB collect USA cents. Depending on condition it is Worth the .25 to around $20 in high grades.

Answer 2

The easiest way to find out is to take it to a fed. mint show or go to the library and take out a coin or us mint book and find it but i will tell you i am no expert but depending on its condition and the symbols i am going to say it would range any where from $1000 to probably $5000 and that is only if i am thinking of the correct coin there is actually 2 coins that can be.
