IMHO the raw coin has more eye appeal than the slabbed one so if the slabbed coin sells for more than the raw one it will be an indication that people are buying the slab and not the coin  I should have listed a MS coin against the slab but that would not have been a fair test and I couldn't bring myself to part with an MS Canberra florin anyway

Quote: the raw coin has more eye appeal.  However, I think people will pay more for the slabbed example. It will be interesting to see the end result though.

Interesting, especially after reading your response to BiggFredd view on slobbed coins.

That is why I did this, I HATE parting with my favorite cons

trout1105: I am sure King Goofy (Kruger Gray) would have been quite chuffed about how you feel about his first design to appear on an issued coin. When I was a kid I didn't know what KG meant, so I invented my own explanation from a Walt Disney comic!
It should be interesting to see how this experiment turns out.
BTW, how many three steppers have you got?
