    A very handsome coin.

    Well worth of rescue. I just pulled one outta my box, as it happens.

    But mine was a '21 - only 50% silver, and a partially-cleaned G6. image

    So that's what a George V halfcrown is supposed to look like, huh? It's been a few years!

    No, it's a raw coin placed into an Airtite holder. It is choice UNC, so would probably go 63-65.

    Is that a yellow stain on the obverse? or just the photo.

    Sharp coin, Wybrit! You are to be commended for doing what you can to save coins from the evil fate of PVC poison. Who would allow such beautiful icons of history to deteriorate behind such ravenous material????
