British Pennies

Anybody here collect circulated, large old style British Pennies?

My late Mother was English.
She and my Father brought back hundreds over numerous trips. No "rare" dates, but I have a stash from early Victoria to Unc. ELizabeths from 1967.

Can anybody help me estimate value in "average" condition for their respective dates?

    Sure, if you can provide dates/MM and maybe a pic or two as an example of condition.

    I collect them by date. The ones I need aren't exactly common, but who knows?

    I literally have many thousands of them in bags. At times I have sifted through some and found a 1950, and some early 20th century KN mintmarked coins.
