You guys have made me a sick man!! This time I got a 2005P, I guess that's something because it's after 2001 although it's not silver. I also got a coin the size of a half that says "one penny" and "1928" on one side and has a bunch of stuff on the other side I can't figure out. (no camera right now) On the other side there is a big head of someone and the writing says "GEORGIVS V DEI GRA:BRITT:OMN:REX FID:DEF:IND:IMP:" whatever that is. Looks like it's copper. Now, the silver. Got a 1967 with no mint mark, 3 each 1964's, a 1957 Benny and a 1942 Walker.

British penny, and a great find! The translation (from Latin) is as follows: "George V, by the Grace of God, King of all the British territories, Defender of the Faith, Emperor of India"

Immy, do you have any idea how much they're worth?

Fine condition = 25¢
Very Fine = 50¢
Ex. Fine = $8.00

If it's a VF you got your money's worth!

Thanks Immy. Yeah TX, so far I've spent $206.50 on halves. I've gotten this British penny, 2 Walkers, 1 Ben, 5 1964 Kennedys, 8 40% Kennedys and a 2005P Kennedy. I've ordered $200 more for next Thursday. Hope the streak continues.
