    Bought the set for the one penny. An upgrade for my set. Already had a nice one, but it had tons of carbon spots. This one comes out clean :)

    This just came in the mail today. I paid just a wee bit over spot for it. I think it was worth it :)

    Any idea what you would grade it?

    Aussie's grade their coins differently. They start from the lowest grade and move up while in the US we start from the top and go down. At least that's what I heard ;)

    I was thinking somewhere around the AU53 range myself. Granted, that's based off a US photograde and my own bias ;)
