FNQ Pillar of the Community Australia 507 Posts	Posted 06/26/2012 04:06 am Not much apparent lustre and a couple of "bag marks"? Better than many MS60 or MS62's, but that's a different ballpark... ;) Report this Post to the Staff
trout1105 Pillar of the Community Australia 7096 Posts	Posted 06/26/2012 04:19 am Obvious wear on the maces, definitely circulated aEf at best. Most certainly not a $245 coin Report this Post to the Staff

Jeff Pillar of the Community Australia 877 Posts	Posted 06/26/2012 05:10 am I am still trying to find the steps in front of the entrance. Best, quick way to suss one of these coins out quickly. Jeff Report this Post to the Staff

Best, quick way to suss one of these coins out quickly The steps on these is mainly an indication of the quality of the strike and not the best way to gauge the grade. The crown ends of the mace and the shell above the parliament house are the high points to look for wear. Also make sure the toning is even, this coin has toned but is lighter on the high areas that point to it being circulated Report this Post to the Staff
goatieman23 Pillar of the Community Australia 869 Posts	Posted 06/26/2012 06:26 am That's what I'm thinking, a weak strike. Looks neat, but just not attractive. Report this Post to the Staff
Silvernut New Member Australia 48 Posts	Posted 06/26/2012 06:38 am WOW!! If that's worth $249 and graded as UNC then my best 27 Canberra must be worth $550! You think he'd be interested in buying mine? Report this Post to the Staff
trout1105 Pillar of the Community Australia 7096 Posts	Posted 06/26/2012 06:55 am These are my favorite Aussie florins and I have dozens of them. This one IMHO is just a run of the mill coin, It even appears to have been cleaned. The best one I own would be aUNC-Unc and would make this one look like an ugly sister. I have bought off this seller in the past and have been happy with the coins. I have absolutely no idea why this was listed as it is . I just hope he has buggered up with the pic's and makes the necessary revisions. Or changes the listing. Report this Post to the Staff
