Au53. But that is a weak guess with low res pics and only 1 side shown

Without seeing the reverse of the coin and comparing the obverse with my PCGS Graded Mules, yours would definitely be AU55 minimal or better.

It is an extremely good find.

Well done.

Might have to come over one day to your tuck shop and have a look.

Hrm... two in a month or thereabouts? That makes Werribee a hotspot! Sounds like I better go for a drive, eh? ;)

Thank you for your help and everyone else's help I Appreciate it.
I'll post the other side today.
I'm  actually putting this coin in my sons  Time capsule to open up in 21 years time and just wondering what would I say it might be worth currently for his Time capsule  purpose only. I don't really understand Au55 or Au53 I give it a Google

PCGS, definitely. Look around the forum... there are a couple of people who send off bulk lots regularly and might save you a bit.

Now with the pictures of the Reverse, your Mule is one of the best I have seen photos of.

Well done.
