61, All depends on price

AU58
I’d pass

I think the extensive die polish, likely to remove the evidence of the young portrait from clashed dies on the Saint George side, is mighty cool. Does it create a flashy halo affect when rotated?

Good question, I haven’t seen it in hand so I cannot answer.

MS... 61 seems to be the better opinion... could 62 on a good day

"yes CAC" would be quite an accomplishment for any world coin.

Tom spoke about the reverse - anyone else have any thoughts about it?

63. It’s a great piece, but, unfortunately I get stuck on the most minor of things and that scratch near the eye would always pop up for me.

I think it looks like a 62, but I expect it’s in a 63. I would not buy it in a 63 or higher. The fields and high points are pretty rough, especially the face and hair.

We have a few winners. It was graded as MS 63 and sold for $1,020 last night. I would have graded it slightly lower - I’m a bit conservative in my grading. I also could not get past the reverse. While interesting, I like my fields without distractions.

I see that "micro-ticking" and central loss of lustre about the Vicky effigy & would also have to go 58, max 61. Reverse die polish doesn't really bother me too much. Not my cup of tea but alright.

MS62, would I buy it? I guess if I needed the date. The die polish doesn't offend me.

MS60. The die polish lines on the reverse don't bother me all that much.
