I think this coin would grade VF-30/35, and on a good day, if I owned it, I would hope for EF-40. I can't see it any more than that. What do you think ?

Too much wear for AU, but could make XF

I think EF40. If it comes back higher, I think the TPGrader may have given in to the temptation to do so.

Beautiful reverse, a couple of the jewels worn gives it a EF-40-45

This coin is graded at AU-53. Where are all the veins on the leaves ? I always thought that an AU coin should have some lustre. The field on the obverse of this coin is 100% marked-up, not even close to an AU. Missing the pearls to the left of the centre jewel, which is also worn, used to be the line between VF-EF. Grade creep, caused by US grading companies, is real.

yeah, you are totally right! But fortunately, canadian buyers tend to look for ICCS graded coin. PCGS and NGC are more reliable in MS62+ grade, below that, better stay away. People need to remember, BUY THE COIN not the holder! :)
Thanks for the exemple!

I'm at VF 30 here. 35 if there were such a thing.
This is def not an AU coin. Not today, not ever.
