Is this another "Overseas coin" This is actually a local coin Trout and I would have to consider it as at least AU55 |

Looks like it has most of it's original lustre.
I can't spot any dings on the lettering on both reverse and obverse.
The fields look nice and clean/free from chatter.
No obvious dings in the rims.
Could be a weak strike on the obverse but the reverse is great.
A little bit of "Bagging" on the lustre and it has no evidence of cleaning.
Gotta be at least AU58, probably better

You just never know your luck with auctions. I picked up a super sweet Canberra florin recently for under $80. I hope you do well mate this would look great amongst all your other coin stunners  |

I reckon it would have to go for between $3000-4000. The toning is real nice IMO.
