Numis-Northerner Pillar of the Community Canada 857 Posts	Posted 05/12/2020 02:13 am VF obverse, reverse looks like VF but unnaturally worn down. VG details I guess Report this Post to the Staff
oriole Pillar of the Community Canada 5287 Posts	Posted 05/12/2020 10:04 am I have seen this a lot on Canadian large cents. The planchet is a bit concave (or convex) so that the middle of one side wears very rapidly. Report this Post to the Staff
tfred Pillar of the Community Canada 627 Posts	Posted 05/12/2020 11:51 am This is very typical of this specific date for the Newfoundland ten cent series. It is a convex reverse, therefore the centre will wear first, and therefore needs to be graded accordingly. My thoughts is that this is a vf20 coin. At the very least f15.

tamarin Pillar of the Community Canada 576 Posts	Posted 05/12/2020 1:58 pm As tfred points out, this NFLD date is notorious for its weak reverse. Easy VF coin! Nice one and a tough date! Report this Post to the Staff
Numis-Northerner Pillar of the Community Canada 857 Posts	Posted 05/12/2020 5:03 pm You guys are probably right about the convex strike, but I still have a hard time grading this coin anything higher than VG-10. Also the obverse looks like it may have been wiped with something rather abrasive. Report this Post to the Staff
TheDeductible Pillar of the Community Canada 851 Posts	Posted 05/13/2020 12:34 pm Id have to say F15 on this one, almost bordering on VF20 but just not reaching it. Very nice coin. VERY RARE COIN!! I'm jealous. Seriously, I am. Report this Post to the Staff
