Upgrade #3: 1921 Shilling

The 1921 shilling is extremely scarce in high grade and could be considered a key date in the series. I've been searching for one of these for what seems decades. It always comes in a dull finish (debased .500 silver similar to the 1920 halfcrown I showed earlier)

Replacing this one, a real plug-ugly.

Considering this upgrade, one might call this "filling a hole" instead!

    Nice coin... I think some of these shillings have been ignored and overlooked for so long that a new wave of interest will make higher end coins all the more difficult to find.

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