I am fairly sure this is a scarce variety, and I learned of it on coinsandcanada.com first. I am just curious if anybody else here has seen many of these and if others concur with the average grade which I understand can fluctuate somewhat.

silverwolf Pillar of the Community Canada 3733 Posts	Posted 09/05/2021 09:23 am i also don't think this will make AU. EF40 tops. Nice repunched 5 though. Report this Post to the Staff
mrwhatisit Pillar of the Community United States 2953 Posts	Posted 09/05/2021 8:57 pm I think my lighting threw off the details and made it seem slightly lower in grade, and yeah judging by my photos, I would agree with XF grading, though in person it seems AU. Report this Post to the Staff
