    Values depend very much on the condition of the coin. A quick check on eBay (only as an indication). 1894 UK penny is about £1, 1894 US penny (Indian Head) is about $4. IF you think it is worth a lot more take it to a dealer for valuation

    I agree with the answer above. It does depend on the condition of it. A person really needs to see it first hand and up close in order to determine a possible value.
