Default 1981 "H.R.H. The Prince Of Wales And Lady Diana Spencer" coin

There were 26,773,000 U.K. Royal Wedding Coins struck in copper-nickel and 218,000 struck in silver. If you have a silver proof in perfect condition with the Royal Mint original packaging and papers, you can possibly get 25 dollars in U.S. money - not an easy sell, but not impossible. If you have a copper-nickel piece, good luck at getting 25 cents in U.S. money for it.

The coin does not have a denomination on it, but it is officially tariffed at twenty pence in U.K. money. Perhaps a first class post office in the U.K. will accept them in change (maybe), but you probably can't get anyone else over there to take it in a straight commercial transaction or deposit.
