I saw the cracks as a bonus, not detrimental at all.

I actually thought that was a nasty scratch.:angel:
Looking at it under the usb gizmo it is in fact a die crack.
No sure if that is better, it is still a distraction to the coins appeal.:-/

You only just working that out? :dodgy:

Seriously tho are there any other years to look out for post 1953 ?
These dies produce a specimen quality coin and are very attractive and would make a seriously nice collection of coins in that genre .
A set of business strike, chrome dies and proofs would be an ultimate ( and at the moment affordable) collection of pre decimal Lizzie silver coins.:wavemulticolor:

I cannot recall ever seeing a Royal Visit and I'm not sure if I've seen a 1962 but all the other QEII florins I have definitely seen struck by chrome plated dies.
The 1959 makes a nice compariison piece with a proof 1959.

I'm looking at a 59 now that may just fit the bill

This may be a good way to get a "Poor Man's" Proof Like collection together:winkextra::yahoo:
