Hello

I am so new to world coins other than U.S coins. The B&M shop I work in has made me the non U.S. coin go to guy. I am trying to get a understanding of the guideline for these coins.




Thanks

Cliff

I have neither the time nor the inclination to explain myself to a man who rises and sleeps under the blanket of the very freedom I provide, then question the manner in which I provide it. I prefer you said thank you, and went on your way, Otherwise, I suggest you pick up a weapon, and stand to post. Either way, I don't give a damn what you think you are entitled to!

    Looks AU to me. Can't say I see too much wear, if any. The color looks a little off though? Could be the lighting. Is there much lustre left? Or has it been cleaned?

    It looks like an AU coin, but there are some hits on the rims that will knock it down some. Does the toning cover up any hairlining?

    I was thinking this was an XF+ or AU. There are no hair lines. However the skin is not there for UNC and the toneing is almost like a gun metal grey. The coin does have some rim dings. I appreciate you help

    Choice AU. Maybe 58, in terms of details grade alone. Looks like a slider to me. Of course one might knock it down a tad for lack of luster and some marks and/or rim hits.
