sel_69l Bedrock of the Community Australia 21786 Posts	Posted 02/19/2020 06:09 am Jason 3011: to the CCF! These Five Shilling (One Crown) pieces were known as 'Casey's Cartwheels' after the politician who supported their introduction. Unpopular with the Public, because they were too big to be a practical circulating coin. Popular with collectors. Sterling silver, .925 fine, 0.841 oz ASW. Loss of definition in the King's hair, bands on the orb a the top of the crown flat. Grade? EF (Australian grading), for our American friends:- AU-55,(Sheldon). Report this Post to the Staff

airgem Valued Member Australia 369 Posts	Posted 02/19/2020 11:04 pm To me it's struggling to get to VF, with all that damage on the obverse. Report this Post to the Staff
sel_69l Bedrock of the Community Australia 21786 Posts	Posted 02/19/2020 11:44 pm According to the OP, this coin has been sitting at the bottom of a drawer for decades, obverse down. Has been in contact with whatever it has been sitting on, for a very long time. Hair and cheek rubbing suggests that it has been moved around a bit, in contact with the surface.

Princetane Pillar of the Community 4628 Posts	Posted 02/29/2020 09:02 am Lots of wear on hair, eyebrow and cheek, even without the usual dings and staining, this coin is Vf to Vf+ at best or about VF25 in American grading. It is an average example of this coin. Report this Post to the Staff
