Sorry I know its not strictly Australian but we didn't have our own coins back then. I was wondering what your thoughts were on the grade for this coin. The coin was mounted onto the broach which I believe has left marks on the rim and possible obverse (however could possibly be toning), would this affect the grading?

Thank you very much!

Coin appears to have been plated ?
Basically its a "no grade" based on the pics.
Watch your top knot

yes it would be denote as EX mounted, if as echidna has said that its plated it would more then likely comeback in a flip (small bag).

The coin looks EF or better to me but unfortunately mounted and plated.
