It doesn't look like a proof to me
It\'s not about who you know it\'s about what you know

Have a look at the PCGS Population reports regarding Maundy coins and you will have your answer :ok::)

This is MY call on these coins.
This is NOT  the grades I have got back from  PCGS ,this is just what I expect :ok:
I have been wrong on many an occasion so don't let my grades influence you at all.

Here goes MS66, MS64, MS61, XF40, VF35. Aussie grades are much easier for me GEM, CHU, UNC, VF, gfine. May not be correct mind you, but easier:)
As we age we lose three things, one is our memory and arrrrr I've forgotten the other two!

As there are currently only 17 1970 Captain Cook coins graded as specimens I think a PCGS  SP66 coin would be a nice prize for this, there are not too many collectors that have one of these :)
I will probably add a few other of what I consider "interesting" coins into the package as well.
PCGS  is pretty slow at the moment with the turnaround times so you have at least until Tuesday and probably longer to have some fun with this :ok:

SLOW, SLOW, now that's an understatement :( Gee I'd be wrapped if mine come back sp67 but I very much doubt it!
Wow now this is a hard one :scratch_one-s_head:
maundy 62 due to rim knocks but might pull a 64 on a good day,
3d au58 but might go light MS
florin mm maybe au58,
1/2 johanna au50 due to wear, but still a very nice coin :)
1932 florin tossing between f15 and vf30
going to be interesting to see the results :winkextra:

Just got the results for the 1910 3d = MS62 and the 1916 florin came back MS62 as well.
I think they were graded a bit "Hard" but that's just the way the cookie crumbles :cray:
I am at work at the moment, So I will look through the posts an see who won tonight when I knock off :ok:
