stevo1962 Pillar of the Community Australia 908 Posts	Posted 04/12/2016 5:38 pm I'd agree with AU58 if it hasn't been cleaned Report this Post to the Staff
nealeffendi Pillar of the Community Australia 852 Posts	Posted 04/18/2016 05:31 am I saw that coin and was scared off by its lack of patina etc. I'm guessing that it might be 58 but cleaned. Report this Post to the Staff

I won't know until I get this "in Hand" But I doubt that this has been cleaned. As for the grade it could be anywhere from AU58-MS62, either way I will send it to PCGS and find out Report this Post to the Staff
sel_69l Bedrock of the Community Australia 21786 Posts	Posted 04/18/2016 09:27 am Perhaps? cleaned, but I can't see any wear. Obviously an MS grade to my eye, but what? With weaker strikes, the feathers on the emu can be a little rounded. I'll go for MS62, nice reverse field, kangaroo's right knee a little weakly struck (flat), centre of big star above shield a little flat, also on kangaroo's and emu's shoulder, orb on crown a little light. Only one tiny edge bump on rim at 26 minutes past Seven on the obverse, and the same at 22 minutes past Four on the reverse. (how did I get it THAT accurate? ) Edited by sel_69l 04/18/2016 6:57 pm Report this Post to the Staff

Anyway see what PCGS says. Edited by Basil 04/18/2016 7:02 pm Report this Post to the Staff
trout1105 Pillar of the Community Australia 7096 Posts	Posted 04/18/2016 8:42 pm I am thinking the white balance is off But if the coin shows up with a yellowy looking surface as in the images it will be going straight back. I have an email assurance that the coin hasn't been cleaned from the seller. Report this Post to the Staff
