The Queen Victoria One Penny, issued from 1874 to 1894, is a classic piece of Victorian British coinage featuring the famous “Bun Head” portrait of Queen Victoria. The reverse displays the iconic seated figure of Britannia holding her trident and shield, with a lighthouse and sailing ship appearing in the background.

Struck in bronze, these substantial pre-decimal pennies were an important part of everyday British currency during the Victorian era. Their traditional design, impressive size and strong historical character make them particularly appealing to collectors of Queen Victoria coins, old British pennies and historic UK currency.

With well over a century of history, the Victoria One Penny is a fascinating addition to any collection of Victorian or British pre-decimal coinage.
