AU with a little environmental damage. If Brian or Scott cert'd this with a "far 6" designation, they should be hung by the thumbs. Canacoins, you are one sneaky devil to get something placed so close to my heart.... good one.

Definitely a "quite high..far 6" designation is in order here..

I would have removed the green stuff before submitting though..

No, Devlec, there is nothing in numismatics that's properly called an 1896 "far 6". On this coin, if anything, the 9 is low making the 6 appear high. Stick a ruler under the 1 & 8.

..Maybe a bit extreme,..but it has also crossed my mind a few times also..


I knew it,...I knew it... Okie...but I couldn't resist calling it as I saw it...

..and I knew that it was wrong from what you have told us many times here before....but I wanted you to tell us "one more time"...and "safe travels".



....
