My most local LCS usually has a small amount of world silver for sale for melt, but I think this is the first Australian coin I have found there.

Does it have any numismatic value above melt in this condition?

Thank you

Not really, but I would have acquired at melt.
Silver value for this coin at melt is about $1.25.

Looks like a Die Crack at 8.45 - 9.15 on the Obv legend, but that won't add any value as the coins is too worn. Sorry

Early die cracks on silver sadly dont add much premium, just more a curiosity, just depends on buyer. I believe early copper die cracks can add value due to the fact that copper coins are so cheap in general. I find that quite strange that a error on a more valuable coin adds less value then on a near worthless coin pennies (50c), eh the market wants what it wants.
