I am a fossil who started collecting Victorian coins in 1955. For years, at least once a month sometimes weekly I'd go to the banks and get £5 of pennies. They'd come in 20 thick blue paper bags, showing the banks name, all contained in a large blue cloth bag. Each blue bag had 60 pennies in it (5 bob). Hours and Hours of fun sorting through 1,200 pennies. Each year I'd start a new set for the 100 years prior, never kept any that were worn as bad as you have here, of course I had WAY more to choose from., The last time I did this was in 1971 when there were bucket loads of pre decimal pennies being dumped at the banks, on that occasion I got my hands on 4 X £5 bags, Collecting Victorian pennies was simple in the 50s, sometimes 300+ in a £5 sack. Best of all they were free. Some years I'd make 2 complete 100 year sets.I did sell most of them for the princely sum of £1 per 100 year set, more than twice face value at that time.

[@wernergouws4196]

Wow, I would have enjoyed to go through all those bags of One Pennies like you did. You were very fortunate😃

[@Cp-71]

You can't help but admire a design where the date typically gets worn off last... I wish more coins were like this!

[@davidsirett5560]

the old coins had such lovely designs on them unlike todays coins. i do love these coin hunts.

[@jasonmaccoul]

It’s amazing those pennies are 150 years old and made without use of computers. All handmade dies and thus many mistakes and variants. I love watching your hunts! Inspired me to get my younger friends into coin collecting.

[@dzsibiribic39]

It's amazing that these pennies circulated for more than 100 years!

[@alberthanson1971]

We don't seem to have any resources in the US for British coins. But because there's not as much of a demand in the States you can find some real bargains. One of my finds is an 1869 penny in Fine condition.

[@mcceight7885]

Its always great to watch your old penny videos.

[@pegjames188]

I’ve a bag of Victorian pennies somewhere in the house,always collected the young heads when a kid , fairgrounds were always a good source.

[@mackemmoolah]

That bag of Vickys certainly made some big strides in filling those gaps. And I think the dirty mug got neglected as there were some worthy coins to go into it! 😁

[@CoinPatrol]

I was hoping some would be in nicer condition, but it wasn't too bad. Yes, I'll have to sort the dirty ones I missed and put them in the mug

[@elliottprice6084]

Nice to see so many Victorian pennies. I was rooting for an 1869 penny to pop up. But you have done so well to fill that many dates in the board for two videos

[@bobkeane7966]

It is kind of neat to have all Victorian pennies seeing the different states of wear.

[@darrenplassard7779]

Thanks Paul, glad to hear your normal supplier is back on the scene. If only coins could talk, the stories they could tell.

[@suzyqualcast6269]

That's IT ! Not UNC but used, done the rounds, seen a bit, accumulated some hands on history during their use.

[@AllotmentDiggers]

Lots of gaps filled the board is filling up quite a bit. I love the Jack the Ripper Coins, I collect that date from around the world when they turn up....

[@briantyler689]

Just to add to your Bingo Lines you had two lines going downwards. Thank you for a pleasureable half hour +.

[@keithcameron6646]

A really enjoyable Victoria hunt with a lot of gaps filled. Good news about your original supplier. Hopefully more penny hunts soon.

[@CoinPatrol]

Thanks Keith, yes I hope the pennies turn up this week 👍

[@wdpayne1958]

I bought a group of 100 Victoria pennies the last time I visited the UK. Lots of fun!

[@wdpayne1958]

Excellent mix with lots of dates

[@suzannewilliam-james9744]

Thanks for another fab video Paul 👍 don't know why I love penny hunts so much, think because it takes me back to my childhood when mum used to give me tuppence so I could pay for my ticket on the bus ❤ happy memories

[@CoinPatrol]

Cheers Sue. Yes, my childhood too 👍

[@Luna.Vision]

A Penny-Palooza!!! So many big fun pennies ! thanks for another great hunt!

[@StormwatchDruid]

Nice to see something a bit different rather than the modern coin hunts.

[@ianritchie9017]

Tha 1896 in fairly good condition for that year, Should have gone in your Whitman album Paul, I seem to remember you’ve been chasing a superior conditioned one in ages. That made a huge dent in the Victorian years👏Very much look forward to the return of the old supply next week

[@CoinPatrol]

Yes, I should have put that one in my album. Too late now. Cheers Ian. Yes I hope the pennies turn up this week 👍

[@keenj2006]

I love the Victorian penny's but the Edward 7th penny's are my favorite

[@lordleonusa]

Just the sound of these pennies clanking together is another much missed sound from my choldhood!

[@franciscopezo7593]

Lovely Victorian pennies, always fun to watch your penny hunts, great video!

[@michaeldraper3707]

What a great selection of Victorian pennies, thanks Paul!

[@PaulClark-nq5qo]

Nice to see so many of the Victorian years filled including plenty in nice condition. Thanks for another good video Paul

[@michaelbennett6179]

Love your videos. I sit for hours going through my collection. Your experience in finding the good ones helps. Thanks.

[@2coinaphrase121]

Love a Smiffy BINGO line. 🎉

[@joelp6197]

I love the old Victorian pennies, thanks for the video.

[@captaincoinman9638]

Nice to see more Victorian coins than the usual 1967s

[@chrisharrison4744]

So nice to see a lot of Victorian pennies in the one hunt. My guess is that three of the four pennies left to find will be the 1950, 1951 & 1953 varieties plus one of the Victorian ones

[@Goonercollectscoins]

Great load of victorian coins loads of update just love your penny hunts well done paul 👍👍👍

[@CoinPatrol]

Cheers Ed, thanks for watching 👍

[@kevinmccallie5698]

Another fantastic penny hunt , the boards filling up nicely. Learning so much about different error marks and mint marks.

[@pirmalharrisaran5611]

That 1892 is in excellent condition...just love those penny hunt.

[@tommaciejewski7029]

Nice penny hunt. Lots of variety. Nice to hear you're in contact with your normal seller. Looking forward to the next hunt.

[@brixton007]

Thanks again Paul!! Loved this great hunt of these Victorian pennys. 👍

[@ryancampbell1252]

The 1875-H is the rarest of the set as it has the lowest mintage. Compared to the 1869 it would be interesting to see which had a better survival rate. I have a ¹/² penny with a die number, but I don't know much about it.

[@user-dn5nl9oi2j]

That was a great haul. Lots and lots of gaps filled. Look forward to the next hunt.

[@claresmith8438]

For some reason in my primary school we would polish the bun head pennies and bend them in an old iron gate in the playground

[@CoinPig]

👍- I was just watching this video while checking a few of my old pennies...and found an 1882 without the 'H' - at almost exactly the same time as you mentioned it! However, there may be a reason for it being without the 'H' - it's rather worn! 🤔 I'll check in daylight tomorrow! 🤞

[@vossierebel]

Great to hear you're getting more coins from your original supplier - these penny hunts are great so it will help you carry on! Happy penny searching! Hopefully the tide won't go out too far!! 😁🍻👍

[@ahappymonday4931]

Loved the 1896, nice grade, and the rare dot coin. Thanks

[@smiffy7890]

Glad to see a fair bit of progress and some lines and also plenty of asked you’ve managed to source more from your original supplier 😊 Great stuff 👍🏻

[@CoinPatrol]

Hi Smiffy, yes, hopefully more pennies will turn up this week 👍

[@davidmunday5906]

Nice to hear your main supplier has found another batch of pennies arriving soon.

[@_WooWho]

Such a shame decimalization took these out of circulation-wouldn’t it be wild if someone found one in their change today?

[@randyb3180]

Thank yoy once more for another GREAT hunt. So looking forward to the next😊

[@paulbarnes8363]

Only watched in for a few minutes & was so surprised at how many OK Victoria's

[@lordleonusa]

No one would blame you for swapping out any of these coins on the board for any in worse condition from your petsonal collection! So if that 1896 is better than yours, I say go for it!😊

[@tjwhitlow1053]

I always enjoy watching these videos! Good to hear that your main supplier has another batch on the way!

[@paulp4678]

Great vid and information as always. I bought a pre-decimal set for £50 at the car boot yesterday. Longest reigning monarchs. Victoria and Elizabeth 18 coin set in a very nice wooden box. I mainly bought it for 1893 crown as I didn't have a Victoria one. The Penny was from 1897, but sadly no dot.

[@mattscoins]

Great Video Paul, some lovely finds in that lot. I will get back on the coins soon, picking up some silver this afternoon to try and get the mojo back.

[@jjmckenna4358]

Just remembering when I was at school 66 years ago, my mum would give me two of those pennies for the bus fare to and from school. Spent one on black jacks at the sweet shop and walked home. Great days.

[@peterperigoe9231]

4 Blackjacks for a penny in my day, don't remember spending farthings but I presume 1/4d a Blackjack?

[@Leatherheads18]

Thanks for the video. Got my first Victoria pennies today in an online auction. Not as readily available here in the USA.

[@peterwicks4295]

Wow another great hunt Paul love these penny hunts, do my hunts at booties on a Sunday morning... 😀

[@martinharris7197]

Another great hunt. Filling up the board very quickly with a nice variety

[@johnsaunders5787]

Lots of Victoria gaps filled 😊 Nice one Paul 👍

[@JamesTiff]

I do love the Victorian ones! Some nice finds, not bad for £30

[@simonovens-em3tj]

Looking forward to the coins from your original mystery supplier! Extraordinary variance in condition in this lot but great spread of dates.

[@paulduncombe3308]

Another brilliant video. Love the penny hunts. This one was really good with just Victoria pennies.

[@Alrik.]

Thanks for the reminder Paul, I need to buy new kitchen roll. 😜 Also nice coins 😉

[@richardhayward1314]

Stunning hunt. Always plenty of information about the coins you sort. Love your content.

[@wernergouws4196]

I was hoping to see you find a 1897 dot penny😂, but it was very nice to see all those Victoria pennies in one bag😃

[@rikuskotze7612]

I love coin hunts. Especially penny's.

[@johnstear3505]

Hi Paul, thanks again for your effort in getting more coins and keeping the videos coming.I keep hoping that you will find something that you keep on looking for,from JRS.

[@davinaroberts]

Always a pleasure to watch your coin hunts, ive learnt a lot from you 😊

[@andrewfreeborn]

It's great to see a video specifically about the Victorian pennies. Usually we see less of them because of all the later interesting varieties. This was a great video, Paul. Thank you!

[@richardheaton8599]

Many thanks - another great video. Paused and checked my loose 1863's while watching, but nothing unusual with the 3's and no mint marks - might have to look in the box of old Whitman folders just in case - Look forward to the next one !

[@stephenbell2757]

After your penny search. If you want to relax, just pop the blisters on the envelope. It takes all the tension away.😁

[@ianhodge2859]

a good hunt, all but six Victorians found and the star find that 1868 which is really aware

[@CoinPatrol]

Cheers Ian, yes, that 1868 was a nice find 👍

[@user-mt4yf3eg6o]

Great Victorian pennies some nice finds.

[@kellywhitlow8325]

Another fantastic video! Looking forward to the next one.😊

[@rogeroneill1539]

I am always intrigued by the coins with the years overstamped so that an earlier year is still showing. I presume the die was re-engraved (imperfectly) but I can't get the image out of my head of the Royal Mint dragging urchins off the streets of Tower Hill to have them hand punch the new date for a penny a thousand...

[@user-oh5ow7jf2r]

Great noodle and I only wish I could get coins to do the same. I have collected quite a few English coins but our supply in Australia is minimal. Look forward to the next video. Regards Glen Orr

[@brianrust7823]

Another super hunt Paul. Wish I could find a source who takes out the 1967s, I had 17 in a bag of 100 coins a month ago.

[@blackcatcoins8613]

Filled up a lot of spaces there , some very nice coins also.

[@denniscook9032]

Another pre-decimal penny hunt! Thank you. This made my day much better. Keep up the great content.

[@jjwen4653]

Great Hunt. Always informative. Thanks for another great video.

[@briannaxxx1]

Another informative and entertaining video. Keep up the good work.

[@LeighSmith-gi2gv]

Love your videos keep them coming 👍🏻

[@sam_coins_8873]

Amazing stuff! I am however not sure about your statement that videos should not be numbered. Rather, if I find a numbered video, I immediately know there's more to watch, which is usually a good thing for me

[@davidsowerby2954]

Been really enjoying the videos and I've now started adding to my collection with some junk shop finds. Also, checked my own childhood collection and it appears I have a 1915 recessed ear with the broken tooth. Unfortunately 10 year old me gave it a bit of a polish.

[@Class43Harrison]

Great video!! I love the good old fashioned penny hunts

[@michaehector1018]

G'day Paul its great to see some more pennies on the board and there is more to come with your normal supplier keep the penny vids coming until your next vid stay safe cheers mate. 👊🇦🇺👍🙏

[@keithh5053]

Pretty decent bag of Victorian Pennies Paul. No rarities but a lot of new finds and upgrades. Obviously a searched lot with any specials taken out. I was amazed at the amount of 1897's. You don't normally get that many in your big penny hunts. Anyways thanks for another nice video. Would still like to win these though. Looking forward to your newly acquired lot from your normal source.

[@CoinPatrol]

Cheers Keith. Yes, it must have been 10 or 11 1897's. No dot though. 👍

[@Timo7213]

Very nice video! I love the old victorian Penny's and it's very interesting to see how different the conditions of the coins are.

[@Falcon1082a]

So happy to see a new video, especially all Victorian!

[@iancarr7629]

Another great hunt. Keep them coming.

[@voguifly]

I didn't think you'll fill some many slots. Nice one!

[@andyo742]

Filling up nicely, love these hunts

[@johnamans899]

Soon as the notification of a new video everything on hold, got to watch now!

[@CABL-TylerBaratta]

These type of pre - decimal videos make me feel like I live in 1967 or 1966 in the UK - well I live in Australia so we had decimal coins then I also feel like getting some pre - decimal coins to hunt through - for the 1897 penny’s is there a chance to get a high tide and a dot if so how much would you think it would be worth

[@Toms3110]

compelling and fascinating as always

[@georgeiii2998]

Nice Sunday watching

[@antonborisov3390]

Lovely video, and lots of useful information.

[@juliabartusiak5836]

Great video Paul!

[@joostgruijters1216]

Very very cool. Really enjoyed your video.❤

[@kevinwakefield]

Good work. The board looks a lot more balanced now

[@philipnicholls1278]

Really enjoyed watching this one.

[@alenjenkins6121]

Enjoyed the show as usual mate, can't beat the old coppers.

[@CoinPatrol]

More soon I hope Alen. Thanks for watching 👍

[@Gumardee_coins_and_banknotes]

Ah a different kind of video, looks great.

[@silvergopher]

Thank you for another great penny hunt.
