Would like a hand grading and putting a value on this 1859 dp 85 with a beautiful clash on the back please. New to the Victoria large cents. Any and all help is welcome.
Wear-wise I'd say VF-30, but there is corrosion on the OBV. A very nice clash, well-evident. Do not believe the prices from CaC as they are greatly inflated. R/Ps of the 8 and 5 are pretty common so you're not going to get rich.
Clashes are also very common for that date, but yours is especially impressive. Also I like the very large die crack across the reverse.
