From the reverse toning it looks to be from one of the '87 Mint Sets judging from the bright blue rectangle at 1:30

We get hung up on high numbers so easily. We forget that many of the truly rarest, most valuable hammers of all time have been graded 64 or lower.

Not sure I agree with 64 but I have not seen it in hand. I can tell you that I have not had a Victorian or Edwardian Crown that I have submitted come back higher than 64. My 1893 and at least one of the 1902's have been pictured before

Know thy coins!!
Well, just Love coins, period.
Just that this last submission was this coin along with a few US coins and I was unlucky with grades.
But overall the images speak for themselves and I still love the Crown whether its in a MS64 or 66 holder.

Is the OP coin Proof or MS?

bidask.........It looks so prooflike but maybe these coins don't get that designation, or its the toning that held it back from that?
Whatever the reasoning behind grading these I just love it and waited for years to find one and got very lucky to find it raw.
Are these really selling for that kind of price?

I think one take home message for this is that the buyer better check the coin and then the label & plastic! As I said before the "reproducibility" of grading results is VERY poor IMO, despite the tremendous consequences when these coins are auctioned.
I think of this 1887 crown, then the 1893 crowns, and especially the proof gold of these years. The 1902 coins are also examples of this - I have seen TPG grading from fair to atrocious even by the major firms, and mostly on the crown through the 5 sov gold.
