DBM Pillar of the Community Canada 9865 Posts	Posted 09/10/2010 3:06 pm Can't tell if it's victoria leaves or broad leaves,but either way $25-$30,a decent collectable coin. Report this Post to the Staff
neweden Valued Member Canada 272 Posts	Posted 09/10/2010 3:19 pm This coin has seen some use,note the denticles on the rim and also the jewels in the crown.. I would estimate this coin as VG-8 the lowest grade in Charltons. It is difficult to tell from the picture weather the leaves are victorian or broad, however I am leaning toward broad leaves.... Value about $15.00 book value, probably less in the open market. Over 1 point 6 million issued. NEWEDEN Report this Post to the Staff
SHAFTA9a Bedrock of the Community Canada 10743 Posts	Posted 09/10/2010 3:23 pm Yes.. I agree with neweden.. VG at best, and it also looks like Broad Leaves to me. Report this Post to the Staff
bvalania Valued Member United States 458 Posts	Posted 09/10/2010 4:18 pm Thanks for the info guys. Does it make a difference which leaves are on it? Should I get a more clear pic? Report this Post to the Staff
DBM Pillar of the Community Canada 9865 Posts	Posted 09/10/2010 4:39 pm Here's VG8 from a well respected on-line grading guide. http://www.coinoisseur.com/VG-8_Edw.jpg I think the OP's coin is a mite less worn. Report this Post to the Staff
neweden Valued Member Canada 272 Posts	Posted 09/10/2010 5:18 pm Well I for one would not even look at that coin if they said it was VG-8 I dont care how well respected they are. To me that coin that was just posted is worth no more than silver. Report this Post to the Staff
DBM Pillar of the Community Canada 9865 Posts	Posted 09/10/2010 7:26 pm You are right,VG8 coins aren't worth much more than melt.The point is that the OP's coin is not VG8 Report this Post to the Staff
neweden Valued Member Canada 272 Posts	Posted 09/10/2010 7:36 pm The point is noted, perhaps it would be a good idea if DBM was to read the standard grading guide by charlton and willy, A little knowledge goes a long way. NEWEDEN Report this Post to the Staff
