Kefiroth Pillar of the Community United States 1431 Posts	Posted 04/22/2014 4:07 pm Most British collectors grade by somewhat different standards than Americans. While a British collector would probably call this a "good Extremely Fine", I think PCGS gave it MS-63. Report this Post to the Staff

Paul Bulgerin Pillar of the Community United States 3098 Posts	Posted 04/22/2014 8:06 pm I won't hazard a guess as to grade, but I have a full red 1890 Half Penny that is currently at NGC being graded. I'm curious to see what your coin was graded, as well as knowing what mine will come back as. Paul Bulgerin Report this Post to the Staff

Tom Goodheart Pillar of the Community United Kingdom 856 Posts	Posted 04/23/2014 1:57 pm For UK grading really you need to be able to see the high points such as the breast, fingers on the hand holding the trident and hair ribbon. It may be my laptop, but I'm afraid I just can't make out those details on the photos posted. Looks like a nice coin though! Report this Post to the Staff
