I've had these coins in my collection for quite some time. A while ago I was able to get my hands on a decent sized lot of large Australian cents for 25 cents a piece A grade estimate on them would be appreciated.




First is a 1927 Half Penny

Australia didnt have cents until 1966; these are pennies

1927 half penny- detail to VF but pretty mucky (nice obv die cracks!)
1924 penny - VG
1935 penny - detail to gVF/aEF but again pretty mucky.

A light rub with olive oil will remove most of that grime and benefit them hugely IMO. The 1927 reverse may be a bit to heavy for the oil though and is probably beyond fixing.

1935 should come up real nice but I do stress Light rub maybe with a cotton bud.

Whilst it does has some rim nicks which hold it back from EF it is at the very least VF IMO. I'm sure a light rub with olive oil will bring out a lot of detail in the crown.

On second looks I will admit aEF is too optimistic but gVF wouldnt be out of the question.
