    Default Identification of a 1919 Penny (King George)

    Can anybody advise on this one please? - I've got a handful of old pennies - They look to be in reasonable, but worn condition.

    they range in dates through the reigns of George / Edward and Elizabeth.

    Now - One is dated 1919, and I also found a piece of old newspaper stating that the pennies from this year are of quite high value, but there are 2 clasifications (H) and (KT). I have seen on a couple of similar coins a tiny H next to the date, but this one does not appear to have any such markings - Does that mean it's a KT?

    Thanks.


    For those who aren't fussy about filtering what I sell - Take a look at ALL my stuff above. - But for more specific listings, take a peek in the stores below.

    H is for Heaton mint
    KT is probably KN Kings Norton mint
    Both in Birmingham

    I used to do metal detecting and this is one of the things I learnt.

    Its only a King's Norton penny if there's a KN next to the date, same as your Heaton.
