Kipster Valued Member United Kingdom 312 Posts	Posted 11/30/2022 3:45 pm Evening all, I have this little number and was wondering your opinion please? The reverse is a crispish strike, and the obverse isn't too shoddy with a little wear on the hair and drapery. Couple of rim dings though. Report this Post to the Staff

sel_69l Bedrock of the Community Australia 21788 Posts	Posted 11/30/2022 4:10 pm Very close to uncirculated, but not quite there; I agree that there is the tiniest amount of wear on the hair and drapery (right thigh in particular). I also agree with reasonably sharp strike, which helps. Appears to have a small radial die crack through 'R' of 'REG' (obv.) Even chocolate patina. nice example, good EF (British grading) Report this Post to the Staff

wallyb Pillar of the Community Canada 557 Posts	Posted 11/30/2022 5:54 pm Kipster, you have a great eye and make me want to be more involved in the coin of our mother realm! Beautiful piece and definitely at the high end of AU (sheldon). Personally, I like rim 'dings' and don't find them to be a detraction from any coin. Report this Post to the Staff
Kipster Valued Member United Kingdom 312 Posts	Posted 12/01/2022 07:15 am Cheers Wally. I've got time on my hands so having a rummage. Plenty to get stuck into with the British coins I've got a couple of real beaut's en route too. Report this Post to the Staff
