A decent looking VF 30, possibly EF, check the scratches on the 50 a bit closer

Based on just the crown, shoulder and robe, I'd say VF-20 ... however the leaves and leaf tips don't show much wear, so it's VF-30 or a little more. Maybe the Obv was weakly struck or just the luster is rubbed off and looks like wear.

I'll say VF-30 or better.

VF details reverse cleaned issues around the 50.
Would not straight grade in MO.
BTW .....no such thing as a Half Dollar in Canada.
They are officially fifty cents .

1) here are some attempts at a better obverse 2) weight seems either 12.7 or 12.8 g (2 tries)    |

VF-30 details, but I'm really not confident it's genuine or not.

I think I do agree with you for the same reason.

Coin came out of the UK ....private seller.
Could you elaborate your concerns and/or advise what you think I should be looking at ?

I'm no expert. Far from it. In a quick comparison with an image from coinsandcanada the date appears to be left of centre from where it should be.  |
