25p: From Coin News February 2011. £5: From Coin News June 2010

The lack of a value for a grade means that its value is little more than face, or, in the case of silver and gold, bullion value.

Other forms such as platinum proofs do exist for some dates. In the case of proof or silver proof coins a listing above does not necessarily mean that it exists in that form (it is difficult to be certain one way or the other in some cases, especially when the decision to proceed with an issue took place after the Proof Sets had been produced).

Help and Advice

I would be grateful if you could search the site carefully before mailing me - the answers to the great majority of the questions that I am asked can be found on this site, and I am unlikely to reply quickly to such questions. In particular, I do NOT provide a valuation service.

If you have done this and still wish to ask for advice, feel free to mail me via my Advice page.
