Crown band and regal neckpiece worn, worn Emu feathers, worn stars, worn letters on reverse coat of arms, I give it a VF at best.
Nice eye appeal, no rim dings, no bag marks on face. Nice VF or maybe lower, but a collectible copy.

I'd say gVF - still no complete loss of design.

VF to gVF, I'm not sure but would the colour effect its value?

Nothing wrong with the colour or the dirt

Would be graded Fine (British grading system) in Australia. There a few flat areas, where the high points of the design used to be. Nice patina, which may be hiding a lot of tiny scratches and nicks. Hand held and examined with a 10x loupe, would greatly help to find if there is more than can bee seen here. Leading public auctioneers in Australia use the British grading system for all non U.S. coins. A few coin dealers that send their Australian coins to be slabbed, have the coins back with Sheldon grades. Usually done so they can be sold on line, or occasionally for sale into the U.S. market. I think Coinfrog has got it right for Sheldon grading.  Edited by sel_69l

VF Very Fine. The design and lettering is clearly defined,but some slight wear is evident on the high points of the design and rim border. A few minor scratches may be seen under a 10x loupe..TPG grade could be VF?.

It would come back from a TPG graded XF40 or XF45 |

EF. Extremely Fine. Little wear is evident on the high points of the design and lettering. All fine detail can be seen and a few scratches may be found from rough handling in modern minting processes. Some mint bloom of lustre might be seen. PCGS-XF40 States! Detail is complete with MOST high points flat. The rim damage could lower the coin to a VF35...Personally I don't like coins with rim dings.
