Very nice.

These are tougher than you might think in unc but they do come nice. This one looks a little PL in the picture.

I was surprised to see the Krause value of this coin in BU. I don't know if that is a real market value though.

These are tougher than you think in a high unc grade

I'll bite - What was the value?

And sweet example, I like collecting Modern greek coinage in UNC, and have assembled a decent pre Euro type set.

It's $16 in unc and $50 in BU.

With the recent grade mania that has hit Greek collectors, believe it or not, but an MS68 of this example brought $400 a few months ago. An NGC 64, although practically almost equally nice should be in the $35-$45 region.There are lots of them in the pop report.

Actually the 10 drs, just like the (1954) 5 drs and the (1960) 20 drs ,all one year types (+1965, a commem issue), are not tough at all, because they were hoarded, contrarily to the smaller cu ni values (0.50,1,2)that were not. That's a lot of specks on your obverse flip ajaan.

My experience is that these just aren't that tough. They're by no means common but
you used to run into them for catalog value back when they were cheap.

I am only referencing high quality examples...
