It is stressed that the following prices are a guide to retail prices only, and are in UK pounds. They represent what you might have to pay a dealer, rather than what you might be able to sell them for. Sets in contemporary boxes are worth more, especially if dated.
I can take no personal responsibility for their accuracy, although every effort has been made to ensure that they have been copied correctly.

Condition Grades

The headings F, VF, EF and Unc refer to the condition grades of the coins. A guide to evaluating grades is found on my UK Coin Values Index page.
Proof coins relatively often found are listed, but the absence of a mention does not mean that a proof of that year does not exist.


Single Maundy Coins

As a very rough guide, individual Maundy Coins can be valued at approximately a quarter of the value of a set, but do bear in mind that the four denominations for any given year are not necessarily equally easy to find.

Single coins may be listed separately under the individual denominations.
Fuller details are now available for:


Missing Dates

In some years not all four Maundy coins exist. Partial sets are indicated below, and I welcome information regarding any unlisted coins.
