mcstone Valued Member United Kingdom 179 Posts	Posted 04/02/2014 07:23 am I have had this coin for a little while now and always thought it was about VF-EF condition on account of Georges hair, but recently someone told me that 1950 Australian pennies generally have a poor strike. So I decided to take a better look at it but I still cant decide. The Roo side seems in UNC condition because mint luster can be seen on the high points. So any opinions? And any guess on value? EDIT: Also, any comments on the weaknesses of the denticles? It occurs in the same place on both sides. Is this normal? or PMD? Many thanks, Matt Edited by mcstone 04/02/2014 08:54 am Report this Post to the Staff

wwwww Pillar of the Community Australia 541 Posts	Posted 04/19/2014 11:06 am An MS62BN is worth about $50, an AU58 about $20. Not really worth grading. Report this Post to the Staff
