I need your opinion for wear. I know the coins have been cleaned. Wearwise, how would you grade these? Thanks.

    The top one appears to be uncirculated and the bottom one XF-AU, not accounting for the cleaning.

    The top is likely unc depending on hairlines that we may not be able to detect from the picture. The Florin is likely EF by US standards

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

    The florin looks better than EF to me, hard to tell how much wear is in Vicky's hair from the pic. Shame about the cleanings, but nice nice nice.

    From the pictures I would go for top Unc. Bottom EF.

    Have to disagree with the crowd and say AU and EF.

    Top - AU - can't tell if the lace is worn or if it's just the picture.
    Bottom - no better than EF and may be aEF.

    Ditto.

    Yes, the first dipped with luster loss and the photo difficult to tell friction to the high points; the second EF but dipped also and not the Brit GEF. I would get out the Taco Bell napkins previously mentioned in several other posts or other sulfuring agents to tone down the "brighty whitey" look.
