    AU58/MS62.

    Coins are always great though this one comes with considerable friction on the obverse devices in particular.
    YQQ, please get a job as grader at PCGS on the days I submit! LOL..

    MS 62 was going to be my gut, but I do not know the series and do not know how these usually look. This coin does appear to be "baggy". -Dan

    I'm pretty confident it's an ICCS ms63.

    Would most likely grade at PCGS ms63 or maybe ms64.

    YQQ, I hope you were being sarcastic when saying NGC and PCGS ms66.

    Yikes, I have seen much better slabbed 62 by PCGS. Do readers not ding at all for the considerable marking/wear to king's jawline, nose, big hit to brow?
    I feel generous at 62 and really want to slide it to 58 as I've seen 55's with less action.

    Impossible to dtermine any possible minute wear from the images....................but....................if it has what I call some minor "circulation fuzzies", then it's an AU58. If no true wear exists, then I'd say MS62 at best (I would say, 61, but the reverse pulls it up, IMO)

    this one should grade MS63 either service - nice piece image

    If this is the same coin I saw posted on another forum, then I know the grade on the holder - I will say it is very optmistic IMHO. It looks like it was used to play street hockey.

    Dbl Eagle,
    I have a PCGS slabbed coin Vf25 and it is NOT better than a VG10
    so, they are all over the globe sometimes..

    That about sums it up...

    In some parts of the country, street hockey is all there is... image

    In all fairness, the 1937 and 38 just do not come nice and I suspect in part it is due to how they were handled. These dates just are not the finest moments for the series

    I finally rec'd this coin yesterday by Canada Post registered mail and in-hand it looks much much better than the photos.
    I wish I could take coin pictures!

    IMO 62 is the correct grade for this coin. Are you going to put it in an album?
