    Now, that's a keeper .. great coin. (Obv 3 isn't it?)

    that coin deserves better than a 64 !!!! :p:p
    Syl, I agree it is a obv 3. have to spend more time to decide on the variety. it is difficult as this 0 is not tilted and is higher than the other numbers.

    The two black spots on the obverse probably held it back from a higher grade. Still, I is a very nice looking coin.

    Out of the 8 coin submission, 2 graded 63, 2 graded 64+, and 4 graded 64. I thought about posting all 8 and asking for opinions as to which 2 were 63's and which 2 were 64+. So we have 5 of the eight posted for anyone willing to have some fun.

    There are a total of 5 coins featured in their own thread that are posted.... 1891 Florin, 1924 Ruble, 1907 Strait Settlements and this one which is the 1880H Canadian 5Cents. I have not posted pictures of three yet

    This coin graded MS64+. At the moment, it is the only one graded at that level. I thought it had a chance at 65.
