john517 Valued Member Canada 286 Posts	Posted 03/30/2013 5:28 pm Considering Luster is the difference between EF and AU I really don't think F12 is a fair grade. Report this Post to the Staff

sel_69l Bedrock of the Community Australia 21788 Posts	Posted 03/30/2013 9:24 pm The first type of Gillick bust had very poor definition around the area of Good Queen Bess's ear. A new master die was needed. The new master die was used for British coins from 1954, and as late as 1956 for New Zealand coins. This coin is a product of the first master die, with the indistict ear detail. I also notice that the definition on the reverse is not much better, and I suspect that this is not due to wear, either. Therefore, I agree with SHAFT9a, in consideration of the reverse. In relation to wear only, EF 40 would be about right. Report this Post to the Staff
