sel_69l Bedrock of the Community Australia 21788 Posts	Posted 01/14/2012 11:45 pm I agree with the grading. I have noticed that the effigy of George V1 always seems to be a bit weak. You need to go to a British proof to appreciate all of the detail that should be there. 1942 Melbourne threepences are notorious for this. Report this Post to the Staff
DVCollector Bedrock of the Community United States 10045 Posts	Posted 01/14/2012 11:57 pm Thanks for your grades! I've always found KGVI harder to grade than KGV. You're right about the 1942(m) 3d. The obverse on mine looks far worse than the reverse. Report this Post to the Staff
trout1105 Pillar of the Community Australia 7096 Posts	Posted 01/14/2012 11:59 pm I agree with sel , it is uncommon to get a strike as good as the Brit coins. This is the obverse of a 1951 crown, this is just a normal strike coin, The proofs are amazing in the amount of detail on them Report this Post to the Staff
