If they are such low grade I doubt there would be any premium on spot.


Maybe. I know the last time I was at a dealer's the first few pages of their folder were almost all VG.

thanks all! I will get the pictures uploaded soonest
Thanks Mr T, prices you mentioned are interesting, anything above melt is interesting as I won the bid at 60% off melt, the lot owner probably thought there would be a bid fight at such a low tipo, I was expecting it too, turns out I got lucky.. no one else was listening LoL!

the other two of the five, included in the 6oz scrap silver lot, are higher grades so easier to tag as vg

I think you basically have melt value there. About $10-12 each on ebay probably. That shouldnt deter you from keeping them as theyre still old coins that deserve a place in history. Imagine where theyve been!

I think that the ADVANCE AUSTRALIA may need to be fully legible for them to be VG but they're not too bad.
I've seen gap-fillers with almost nothing left of ONE FLORIN - TWO SHILLINGS.

in my opinion (IMO)

You may also see IMHO on the forum quite a bit. The H stands for humble.
