Thanks RG :)
:yahoo: I noticed a bit of a die clash earlier between the ribbon and the wheat but after having a better looking at the pic I posted I just noticed a lot more so have circled them, near the 9 and also the 6 :good: There's also some on the obverse so will try and get better pic's tomorrow in the sun light :angel:

Yes very nice RG and a bit of toning starting :good:

It's good posting pic's sometimes as it show what you don't see on a small coin being sooo much bigger :)

Here's the obverse for now, nice that you can see the die clash on both side.

I could put this in the HYBANWT thread but I reckon its quite nice for an MS62:

Two Bob coin collector.

From those images that Shilling looks to be a lot better than MS62.
Nice pickup :good:

Chemistry, its the reaction between the elements in the coin and the environment it comes in contact with. eg sulphur in a cardboard push in set.
Nice coin btw, is it yours?

Thanks for the chemistry lesson, may be it is mine ?:angel::wavemulticolor:
