triggersmob Pillar of the Community Australia 9406 Posts	Posted 07/11/2018 05:23 am I'm no expert, but looks like too much wear on the eagles feathers for VF. I would have thought maybe F. Interested to see what the experts say. Nice coin either way. Steve :) Report this Post to the Staff
Prncoins Valued Member Denmark 126 Posts	Posted 07/11/2018 08:20 am Pretty sure this coin is VF by the Scandinavian grading method, so probably around XF in US I will say. I have never seen any coin under VF with lustre. Report this Post to the Staff
jdmern Pillar of the Community United States 1949 Posts	Posted 07/11/2018 08:57 am Aluminum German pieces seem to hold onto their luster for some reason... This piece would be a solid XF- I'm guessing the breast feathers are a bit more defined in hand Boardwalk Numismatics http://stores.ebay.com/jdmern/ https://boardwalknumismatics.com Report this Post to the Staff
sel_69l Bedrock of the Community Australia 21788 Posts	Posted 07/11/2018 09:50 am jdmdern: I have noticed that as well. I think that they were made from a high silicon Al alloy. That makes them a lot harder, and more deep scratch resistant. It also may have helped them to retain luster better, and appear more silvery looking. Report this Post to the Staff
