Weight is same as a penny - 9.2 grams

Size is same as a penny:  31mm wide and 2mm thick.

Also the only thing I can say the one at the mint has a slant on the foot of the number 1 and so does mums.

You see mum was born and raised in Middleton and passed away of chronic heart failure

But when we asked for mum to be blessed in her church they turned my mum away

They wouldn't allow my mum in her church but people was in there giving food parcels out.now i don't mind food for the needed but.

Mum was God's child as well and mum couldn't be blessed mum was basically told to go away

So hence why I've put her 1933 George v penny  on here.

I can only ask you to bid what your comfortable with and have a good look and see for yourself
So you just have a good look and bid what your happy with

  Hidden treasure

This was simply dug up by my dad when he levelled the garden for his pigeon huts

I know there was other bits and bobs he dug up

With it marbles, spoons bike frames that sort of thing he gave the penny marbles and an old silver spoon that's worse for ware .
And she wouldn't part with it .

Mums collection was a NO touch at all collection!Unless mum was there.
Now before I start I do know about the so called 1933 penny coin that's supposed to be worth a LOT

I live in Middleton have done all my life

And yes i do know about st cross with the mouseman seating

st cross church is about 80 to 90 meters away from mums old house
Mum's home was on the avenue no 63

Situated very near to the church

and the church is on the avenue but it's on a cross road and it actually sits on acre road its entrance to the church is on acre road feel free to Google map it .

you will see dad's old huts stretching the whole of the garden on one side I have rang ebay about it and they said i can't list it as genuine if I don't know myself and I'm sorry i don't..

Mum told me i have sold most of mums collection apart from her silver and gold proof coins they are listed separate

All I know is dad dug it up when leveling the garden for his huts they still stand.

but I don't think there used for pigeons anymore mums home was around the corner from the church I would say no more than 80 to 90 meters away
Mum has kept the penny in a 1970 isle of man proof crown box .

St Cross Church, situated on Middleton Park Avenue.

Now Some say George placed it there but he didn't

The foundation stone was laid on the 11th November 1933 by Robert Armitage, JP of Farnley Hall.

A collection of coins from the period were buried under the stone,

So it wasn't George himself but I did notice his wife passed away in 1933

Now I know a 1933 penny was placed under the foundation stone of mums church with other coins of that year. apparently only 6 to 7 exist

I have been as honest as I can.

Everything i have said is true

But I really can't say if it's genuine i can only tell you what mum told me so it's fifty fifty chance

I can't list it as genuine because of its unknown authenticity so it's to be a gap filler

the marbles and the spoon ..what's left of it. that was with it.

I can show you them i have been as honest as i can and told you everything i know I wish I knew it's authenticity but I don't

so its up to you all I ask is just have a good look I know mum said what to do .

Finally the coin will be sent in a box
