Kipster Valued Member United Kingdom 90 Posts	Posted 05/31/2022 06:03 am Morning all, Just acquired this little beauty. Under the loupe it appears to be the 5 over 5 variety, which was a nice surprise. Thoughts on grade? A few marks and spots here and there, but looks in great condition. Report this Post to the Staff

Kipster Valued Member United Kingdom 90 Posts	Posted 05/31/2022 08:51 am Cheers frog. It's far more attractive in hand than on the original images, and with a bit of lustre showing in the right light. Very, very happy with it. Report this Post to the Staff
sel_69l Bedrock of the Community Australia 19849 Posts	Posted 05/31/2022 08:57 am : a little beauty ! For British coins up to uncirculated, I prefer to use the British grading system. For coins better than uncirculated, I prefer to use the Sheldon grading system. The crossover point is where they both agree with uncirculated = MS60. As OP has stated: "a few marks and spots here and there", but be aware of what may be a tiny verdigris spot between the leaves behind Britannia's right arm. If it is, see a professional on how this may be treated. Otherwise, a beautiful red patina, undisturbed on the high points of the design, both sides. Disregarding abovementioned spot MS-63, one of the best farthings of George 1V that I have seen. Report this Post to the Staff
Kipster Valued Member United Kingdom 90 Posts	Posted 05/31/2022 09:06 am Thanks, Sel, appreciate that. Will have a word with a man I know about the verdigris spot, see what he has to say. Thank you Report this Post to the Staff
