Have you been a Numisbid winner today?

Hey Trout, the slab in the link (PCGS 32647664) certainly looks like an incused to me?

I think you are correct Mate, The "Relief Flag" description on the slab threw me for Six.

[Unicorn]

Yes, I noticed that too, I think PCGS just failed to give it the correct designation.

I bet that had your heart pounding though.

[trout]

There I was thinking I did something stupid and sent the wrong coin in, But it was PCGS that made the stuff up and misattributed the coin .
It probably will only sell for a couple of dollars because of PCGS's Stuff Up :dash1:

[Unicorn]

Perhaps Walter can make sure the description says it?

I noticed that there a 5 2000 Millenniums on numisbid and the 3 (normal) ones are all MS67 with an upper estimate of $105, whereas the incuse AU50 and AU55 have upper estimates of $120 and $300 respectively. Hence Walter has estimated it as being an incuse.

Fingers crossed for you Trout!

[wwwww]

I'll have to check it in hand, it's difficult to see from the photo.

Thanks Walter

gee the estimate is bloody low .75 to $1 and here I was thinking all mine would at least cover grading fees so be interesting to see what they go for as I have 3 x 50, 2 x 53 and 2 x 55 and have another here to get done that should go somewhere between 53 and 55 with a bit of luck.
But funny about the description so I checked all mine and they all say incused so maybe who ever did the submission wrote the wrong thing on it and should have put incused.. but yeah pretty odd all round.

I did add the incused on the submission form, PCGS simply fudged it :dash1:

[ausjack]

Oh so that's yours and pcgs made the error, I think you should get a free submission for that, yeah wishful thinking mate :winkextra:

[trout]

It is the Incused type and Walter has kindly offered to send it away and get this sorted out, This is just another reason why "Numisbid" is such a user friendly option to sell coins :yahoo:

Walter, you rock Mate :good:

[wwwww]

Thanks, sent it over to PCGS today.

[trout]

It isn't very often Walter lists a PCGS coin and describes it as being "Under graded" .
This coin is graded MS63 and looks to be at least MS64, Walters description was

Australia George VI - 1943-S Florin, Lustrous and with better surfaces than the grade implies, PCGS graded MS63. Est. $36 - $48.

From the images on Numisbid I tend to agree, I will post my own images when the coin arrives.
This is the auction listing :ok:

I picked this one up this arvo, These are incredibly hard to find without being ruined by PVC.
Very happy with this coin :yahoo:
