what do you guys think of these? they have weird toning like a rainbow and hard to capture


Goldseeker

That could be handling marks, IE oils from ones hands/fingers.

I have to agree to some point re the toning of coins in the DANSCO Supreme albums, but all coins will tone regardless of how one stores them

Why do I use these albums well the can be stored quite easily and the coins can be viewed from both sides without handling the coins.

The down side is that one cannot get replacement pages that perfectly hold the coins, especially the decimal coins.   One must get a page(s) that have holes a wee bit bigger than the coin, thus the coin does not remain in its aligned position.   Darn it.

thanks rob
what do you think of the 1918 florin? it is ridiculously detailed and has proof like fields. it couldn't be an impaired proof could it?
and its a 1933 shilling

Robster

Missed the 33 shilling, plenty good.! I will leave it to others more skilled to discuss the florin. the 46 shilling has some nice doubling on the obverse lettering.! :good:

Florin has been dipped and/or polished, id say it is EF, note the wear on the feathers. Most 1918 florins are well struck, quite similar to 1917 pennies.

thanks dcoin. pity it is dipped, I like it

Very nice 1918 florin.

How did you get the opportunity to buy these?

I'd like to know what you paid for the lot too...?
