No picture, since the coin is now at the farm, but I picked up an 1838 shilling (probably in the AG-G range) just recently.

Sorry the photo's aren't great, I am not too good with that. The coin itself is not bad though, Henry III long-cross penny minted in London.

Hi,

Still struggling with grading, so advice please?

I have graded this one as VF. But have seen far worse examples graded the same. Am I being to conservative or are others too generous?

Thanks

Andy

Armed with my newly purchased trusty guide to grading British coins i'd grade that a good Fine rather than VF. The ear has VF detail but not enough hairlines in the hair.

I'm a grading noob too though so see what others think.
