1891 Very high EF (Still would be AU 53 in American money)

Seriously 100% Uncirculated British is hard to find before 1900 and especially any date other than 1887 (That year people souvenired just about anything they could get their hands on).

British coins were often struck in high relief on the Obverse and weak striking on the reverse ensured one fingerprint meant the coin became AU overnight!
