I’ve a few of these Dan, picked them up in a local auction.  Funnily enough the lot had 7 x 1797 Cartwheel Pennies.

These coins are out of my comfort zone as my knowledge and experience is based around precious metals...  

Im certainly very interested to hear where you saw one sell for £180. Well done for finding a ‘sold’ item, a lot of people base their prices on what others are asking rather than what a particular coin is ‘selling’ for!

What  I do know is condition is everything!

you'll not get much for them unless they are in exceptional condition. they are very common in worn condition and worth little

I've got a few tuppences kicking around

I'll take a photo and up load it. It's in pretty good knick. My grandfather was an avid collector and left me his entire collection of coins. 

[Danielmcdnld]

If anyone has anything they're looking for specifically let me know. Send me a photo of the coin and I can keep an eye out for it in my collection.

Mmm....there's being hundreds of different types of coins struck over the years - and that's just British circulating coins.  If you add in British commemorative and themed coins, it'll likely run into thousands- maybe take a photo of some different types of coins you have, or narrow it down to at least which Century the coins belong to!

In 1797 at the time it was struck it was exactly worth its own weight in bronze . However the value of the metal quickly overtook face value and the coinage weight and size were reduced .

[Tangomachine]

Are they really worth that much? Wow I'll have to sell mine it's in better condition than that. Thought they were like £40

[Danielmcdnld]

There might be a reason I saw one for £180, I'm not a collector and don't know about them. Don't take any info from me as gospel ha ha .

I've lots of commemorative collections. Think I've a suitcase full. Golden jubilee type things, coins of the realm from the royal mint etc. 

I'll get some photos up later today.

This is one of the coins where price is exponential relating to grade. The edge knocks and slight wear on this specimen unfortunately take it way down from the £180 you saw to around £15-25. I would offer you £10 for it

I seen one of these on Numis videos and do really like them, nice bit of history
