Help Identifying Enamelled 1887 British Coin (Victoria Dei Gratia) [gelöst]

Could someone please help me identify this coin and create a new catalogue page if it isn’t already listed? I’m new to numismatics and not entirely sure what specific details should be included. This particular coin is unique, as one side features blue enamel colouring.

That would be classed as PMD (post mint damage).

If you provide weight and diameter, we can let you know what your piece used to be, before it was defaced.

Thanks for your reply. The weight is 9.82 grams. Diameter is 29mm

N#13214

It seems like it might have been one of these, although it is quite underweight.

I understand, but should I create a new catalogue entry due to the blue enamel coating? This feature might classify it as a distinct coin type compared to the one you mentioned. I’d also appreciate any insight into the significance or purpose of the blue enamel coating on this coin.

No. It's not in the scope of Numista items.

So should I just add it to the link the guy provided above?

Hello,

Nice find!

It is underweight because some of the silver was ground away to make room for the enamel.

For Queen Victoria's Jubilee, folks enameled some of her coins and made them into brooches and pendants.

I saw an enameled 1887 crown that was morphed into a brooch.

Even with the  pin mechanism attached  it was underweight.

It weighed 26 grams.

The coin itself started life weighing like 28 grams.

That’s a great price of information. Thank you

You are welcome my friend  :)
