Virtually no original luster left, but very minimal wear so far as I can see.

A little tough to tell, the pictures have been badly downsampled somehow, it looks like. I'm guessing 55ish.

Pretty coin!

A nice AU. Only real problem is the gash in the back of Eddie's royal pate. Nice coin, very collectible.

Closer shot showing more clearly the aforementioned "gash" which really is the coin's most noticeable flaw.

Plucked from a coin shop's "bargain box" so it wasn't like I had multiple examples from which to choose.

Mintage was 5,000,000 with Numista assigning it a modest rarity index of 30. Value is about $15, I'd judge. Wish it was as nice as this one: http://museumvictoria.com.au/collec...ng-kong-1903
