Your opinion on this maundy.

A person I know has this for sale, for a reasonable price. However, the "mottled" appearance throws me off. Would like an opinion on grade.

I don't know about everyone else, but I can't view your images, Detecto.

 

Dead links. No one can help you if you don't post actual images.

 

Can't see the photos.

 

I can see it

 

The mottling appears to only be on the reverse edges, so it shouldn't detract from the visual appearance of the coin.

 

Do you think its original, or had an old cleaning?

 

I think it's been cleaned relatively recently (last 30 years?).

 

nice Maundy coin ,no real problems mintage 11,132-in the uk it would sell for about £25--my grade would be nearly extra fine

 

Tim, please note this post above. This coin is *nearly* XF. It's XF- in the UK.

By US standards, it might have enough detail to be AU53. The catalogue you use to price your coins are by European grading standards, not US. This is what I've been trying to tell you for the last week or two.

 

Just as a rule, if you don't like something about a coin before you buy it, you will probably not like it any more after you buy it. Whatever "throws you off" now will probably always "throw you off".
