I won't mention the last pic you put up, so I take it you haven't been told today :mocking: I would have thought the missus would tell you ever morning :laugh2: :laugh2:

mate I don't know why people back off and look at me as if I'm a crim :laugh2: it really is funny how people look at me different in summer when I don't wear a beanie, their hole attitue changes..but I do like a stir so it's all good

QuoteThe remaining detritus in the lettering

I noticed that but saw it differently. I thought the grime would build up among the lettering first and spread out from there and in this case the coin never got to the point where anyone thought it needed a clean. I'm quite lilely to be wrong but that was my first impression.

No caca del toro! :drinks:

Yes you are exactly right Bob this coin is uncleaned but does have a few marks on the obverse

It's OK Jim the photos don't really show the coin off too well.These little buggers are so hard to capture and my Samsung S4 phone camera might be 13 mp but getting it to focus is another issue .
I value everybodies opinion so keep calling it as you see it

I am too old and blind to take a photo with my phone, hence my camera is with me most of the time.!!!

ausjack · September 10, 2013, 12:32:21 AM

I'm not game to ask where you keep it :-/

Robster · September 10, 2013, 08:11:21 AM

Gee your getting quite the stable going there mate and yes there's some here that are really good at grading and I am getting better just taking me ages to get it to sink into my think head

But I would be happy grading a little low and getting an AU grade back but thought it could go either way as still trying to work out what pcgs like and don't as they don't seem to like our toned coppers like purple for some reason that I think look quite pretty but that's just me :winkextra:
