Product Description:
This is a 1951 Great Britain 1 Penny coin featuring King George VI. The coin is made of bronze and measures approximately 30.8 mm in diameter with a weight of approximately 9.45 grams. The obverse features the uncrowned portrait of King George VI, while the reverse depicts Britannia with the denomination ONE PENNY and the year 1951.
The 1951 issue is an interesting and relatively scarce date because the circulation pennies of 1950 and 1951 were produced for colonial use, with a mintage of approximately 120,000 for the 1951 issue. The coin in the provided photographs shows significant circulation wear and surface discoloration, which affects its collector value.
