Sorry the pics are so dark. What are your thoughts on the grade?   |

WOW,I'm liking this coin and I dont even collect them. I'm going with AU50 on this example.

The wear on the high points is just a little too much and too flat, to make an AU grade to my eye.
In the British system a nice VF, in Sheldon, EF40.
I have been looking for a nice capped bust for my collection, but not a high priority. I will eventually find one via an Australian auction.

I would say she is XF 45. It has a strong observe strike that could make it into a "+" grade.

I think AU-50, there's not much ware.

Strike is sharp, so should be XF40 based on the wear on the eagle.

Well, this was going to be my first ebay purchase. Missed it because my phone connection bogged down while trying to lightning bid it. Makes me so mad!! |

I will say EF-45 though it wouldn't surprise me to see it in a AU-50 holder.

I think EF-45 (just misses AU-50 in my estimation). Really nice example of a wonderful coin type!!  |

I couldn't agree more on the EF-45 and maybe AU50. Very nice deal if it grades at AU50.
