First off, i would like to apologise if this is the wrong section to post, i couldnt find a suitable one & since i'm a student.....
Anyway, i found a 10p coin that has the face of a 5p/ 5p coin, the size of a 10p.
Does it have a value? Is is worth something?
Thanks.:D

i thinking that this is some sort of joke and i'm totally missing the point, but here goes anyway:
no, you are not about to be rich, 5p coins used to be bigger and you have found an old one. problem solved.2011 wins: £481Eleventh Heaven: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 110 -

Not sure I can blame the OP for not knowing. In 6 months in a supermarket I only saw one old 5p coin. You're far more likely to come across a 5 cent coin, and how often does that happen to you?0

How long ago did they change? I'm 24 and can remember the bigger 5p pieces before they were made smaller.0

I think it was early 1990s so around 18/19 years ago0 -

I've never seen a big 5p. I had no idea they ever existed :S I was born in 88 and Wikipedia says it was taken out of circulation in 91 so obviously i was a bit young to recognise money but I'm suprised i've never seen one kicking around the house0

I'm getting on a bit and i really didn't realise it was that long ago.
