I'd bet "dollars to donuts" that it's not a specimen...not that I'm any expert on SP cents but here is one SP that maybe we can get some pointers from.

It would be much easier if you could crop the extra white out and get a sharp 800x800 pix of just the coin in here.

Remarkably I am using my iPhone to take photos so not the greatest! As for specimen, I think it would easier to compare to the same king as I cannot tell the difference.

Nice coin, JeyRey, but MS-60 BN, would be what I would give it.

AU-58. There is a hint of wear on the highest points. Pleasing color though!

Quote: I am replying to my own thread because unjust saw on the kings should what looks to be an S or an 8 or a B. does anyone else notice that and know what it might be? Is this a specimen coin ? That would be sweet
It looks like a 67 to me. On another note, I would say high AU. As others have mentioned, there is slight wear on the high points....most noticably on the eyebrow, and on the band of his crown. Beutiful coin. Although it brings the value down, I love the nice even brown tone.

Just looking this thread back over... Wondering how some of the members can call this coin a 'AU-55' Looking at the coin you can make out the pearls, great strike, nice chocolate brown, no marks in the field.. I know... one has to have it 'in hand' to really be able to tell but, ..got to be MS-60 at least. Nice coin.

You have to look at where the wear is!
