The overall look of the coins is ...weird. I mean, what is all this "noise" in the fields? And why does the obverse devices look polished? And as Coinfrog said: what about the luster?

Thanks Guys for your answers... Pics from the dealer... I had doubts about this coin ,It looks as if it has been dipped in acid.. the coin looks weird as you mention ! About the luster ,I will ask the dealer about closeups to be sure .

A little wear on the ear, AU-53 would be my guess.

I'd agree with IndianGoldEagle. Virtually uncirculated with a teeny bit of wear on the highest points like the King's ear. But like the others I am worried about the photo - it may just be that it was taken with a bright light shining on the coin that has bleached out the details. I'd expect a coin of this grade to have plenty of original lustre, especially around the lettering, and these 50% silver coins rarely look brilliant white uinless they've been polished - they typically tone to a slightly yellowish color.

I agree with grade opinion of Allcoinage. British grading for British coins.

AU with a weak strike. Traces of wear in usual spots, top of the cheeks, hair above temple and one of the shields (Bottom right) has clear flattening in one area.
Overall AU obv/ gEF rev.
A decent piece.
Not sure about acid dipping, black background and these coins darken slightly as they wear.
