Quote: now for the puzzle , Not a huge one. Around that time collectors were experimenting with different closing methods. Loctite worked very well.  Just had to be very careful not to make contact with coin.

Quote: trout , what is the mace,s? This is where the grade and strike quality is generally determined on these coins. These are the areas that I first look at when grading this particular florin, The better the detail the higher the grade as a general rule in these areas. I hope this helps
