This coin is ex-Bole and I got some time ago and then semi-foolishly sent it for grading 4 1/2 months ago and just now got it back. However, the coin itself in hand is better than is imaged and is a great representative of what is a rare date in mid to higher uncirculated grades:


Love that Milled British (1830-1960)
Well, just Love coins, period.

    Congrats... it has a wonderful look. Hard to grade from the image but with a coin such as this, the overall appearance of the coin trumps the plastic anyway. Looks as if 65 is probable and 66 would not be surprising unless there are surfaces issues hidden by the attractive skin and color.

    Experience the World through Numismatics...it's more than you can imagine.

    Yes, love the date and is a real toughie as you may know. I have an MS 62 that looks absolutely nothing like it.
