Looking at the pics, a couple spot of grime look like damage to the coin. But they are not, just on the surface.   |

Solid AU sharpness if not new, which it might well be.

By "new" are you saying you think its fake. No, hard to fake the kind of griminess that you can see in person. I know I can soak it in acetone and get that tar like substance off. But that will leave bright spots in the toning. I've had some success with silver dip on less darkly toned coins. With this one I may end up making it look worse. Just trying to decide if the coin is in good enough shape to be worth the effort.

Delamination rather than damage?

Maybe, I was thinking that, but I'm not very good with errors.

By "new" I simply meant it was possibly uncirculated.

For that type, it actually in reasonable shape. VF-XF. A lot of the New Zealand had a lot of circulation. So $20 to $40 according to Krause.

Vf to VF+
The Pearls on his crown are not distinct, no real lustre.
Most VF coins have some - fairly good coin as 1935 a less common date.
I agree, NZ silver was heavily circulated and most is found in Good to Very Good condition, coins EF and above are very expensive, but VF and gVF are affordable and easy to find.
