Very nice. Are the stains on the outer case or coin?

I'm not sure Mate, I just took a couple of hasty images before heading off to bed with a chronic case of the Flue .
So much for that Flue injection :dodgy:
I will have a real good look at the coin this arvo but I am thinking they are not stains but toning :ok:

[Unicorn]

Hoping that you manage to throw it quickly Trout!

:drooling: Bloody nice coin troutoffski with plenty of detail mate..love it :good:
Sorry ya crook mate I'm only just starting to get over the flu as well and I thought I was going so well this year for the first time in over ten years as I made it past winter but got it late :dash1:

[trout]

I have just staggered out of bed and I do feel a little better for it :good:
I am having problems getting images of this coin to show the Proof surfaces and the subtle toning :dash1:
I do now however Know for certain what to look for on a Proof Canberra as the surfaces are Unmistakable , Pretty much the same difference as a Wedding Set coins surfaces :ok:

[ausjack]

Ohhh, well you still better send it over so I can have a closer look :mocking:

HeHeHe.
I do feel sorry for the other bidder that only matched my proxy so that I ended up with this coin.

[trout]

This is the best I can do at the moment :ok:
This shows the 2.5 steps so not only a proof planchet but a rather
good strike as well

[ausjack]

I still think I need to see it for myself :blush2: :laugh2:
You can tell it would be a bugger to photograph with such shiny fields

You are more than welcome to come over and have a squiz Mate

[ausjack]

I'm getting there slowly but surely

The influenza doesn't really hit Australia until well after August.  So it is a late flu season here not a winter one. Apparently the infu.  B this year is extremely virulent so the vaccine should help prevent it from killing you. Xx

[trout]

This is the worst dose of the flue I have had in years, I have finally gotten out of bed after 3 days.
I still have the sore throat and a nasty cough but my energy levels are slowly returning.

[oh my florin]

I was about to ask what happened to the proof like Canberra. Interested to see how much it sold for though I think the estimate was $800-1000?

[trout]

I got it for $750
