enworb Pillar of the Community Australia 4411 Posts	Posted 10/21/2012 04:15 am I got this penny just today. I would like to hear how people think it grades. The photos are poor as usual from me....sorry. I know it is a common date but is it worth slabbing. Would it get 64? I am convinced it has not been cleaned. The lustre is a little streaky, especially on the reverse which gives the impressions of hairlines in the photos. Report this Post to the Staff

wwwww Pillar of the Community Australia 541 Posts	Posted 10/21/2012 04:26 am Seem to be a lot of marks on the obverse, assuming it hasn't been cleaned, I'd say MS63RB. Report this Post to the Staff
enworb Pillar of the Community Australia 4411 Posts	Posted 10/21/2012 04:35 am The lustre looks a bit uneven and my best guess was an old fingerfrint or some oil got on some patches. Report this Post to the Staff

trout1105 Pillar of the Community Australia 7096 Posts	Posted 11/04/2012 12:58 am Not too shabby at all enwarb, Beautiful coin. I would guess MS63 rb To make MS64 it would need to have quite a bit more lustre present. I don't know what it is about the coins minted in 1936, they are available in quite high grades. It may be that they were saved because of the kings death or they may have simply been made better Report this Post to the Staff
enworb Pillar of the Community Australia 4411 Posts	Posted 11/04/2012 01:56 am I would guess due to the large mintages and the fact it is the last year struck with the King George V bust and classic style reverse. Report this Post to the Staff
