Before you buy a Victoria Shilling

  • Check the date: up to 1919 these are 92.5% silver, 1920 to 1946 are 50% silver, and from 1947 they are cupro-nickel with no silver.
  • Condition matters far more than silver for good examples: compare the going rate for the same condition, and ask for photos of both sides.
  • Avoid cleaned or polished coins unless you only want the silver: cleaning cuts a collector's price sharply.
  • Some dates are rare (and copied). If a rare date looks cheap, check the edge and the weight: a Victoria Shilling weighs about 5.66g.
  • For silver by weight, buying lots of worn 1920-46 coins is usually the cheapest way to own silver in old British coins.
  • Pay through eBay so the eBay Money Back Guarantee covers you, and keep the packaging until you have checked the coins.
