absolutely!
1stly you notice the polished field in front of king George's fore head
The wreath is fully struck up but has a flat appearance unlike the specimen that has a sharp cut appearance when struck up

you cant see it on my pic but there is a raised line where I have drawn a line
same below

you can see it actually continues from the other side of the tail'
The beading on the rim has 2 incuse lines above the N in CenteNary
around the riders feet are die polish marks

Quote from: 'serial' pid='61996' dateline='1415325914'thanks but it was all luck stevo, I can only hope to be as good as you one day picking the gems out of the trash. I cant wait to see your next grading run

Thanks Adam, I'm particularly looking forward to the results of a batch of 1964M pennies that will be going over next week as I finally opened a roll I was sitting on and they will mostly go RD and some of them are very nice.I also sent over a purple and a chocolate from the roll to see how they would go. An MS66RD would be nice but more likely MS65RD

Oh my what beauties!

Hey serial. Did u purchase that florin as a proof? Ie did the seller know it was one? Lovely grade too. Sometimes a seller may think a coin is a proof but not have provenance to fill in the gaps. I have a 1937 crown which was in a sold lot that had a proof crown and then the coins were mixed up . So it is one crown that I have retained ... just in case!

Very hard to get 66 for Aussie pre decimal.
65 seems to be a sort of ceiling.
My guess is 65BN and 64RD.

serial · November 20, 2014, 10:13:39 AM

the one on the left looks good and lustrous but brown for sure
I am going t go with 64bn because of the light rub on the roos hip
the one on the right is that carbon on her face?
if it is I will go 65RD

Yes it's just carbon but if it goes 65RD it'll still be worth slabbing although I
hope the fully red ones I sent over without carbon marks do a bit better.It
would be nice to get a group of 66RD
