    Just an opinion...AU55/58. And possibly dipped. Not that it's a bad coin.

    It's nearly 27g of .900 silver but with the price at the moment not worth worrying about. I have been offered 55 euros for it which is a little more than the ngc price (40-50 euros) for your estimates. Think i will accept it, thanks

    Sheesh, 55 Euros seems pricey; you're making out like a bandit.

    When i inherited this collection of coins i knew nothing about the subject. I asked for your estimated grading because i didn't know if i was being offered less than it is worth. Turns out coins are like everything else, they are worth whatever people will pay. I can look at respected companies and institutions sites and their price estimates for each grade all day but until i learn how to grade them myself i am going to be indebted to you guys out their with all the experience you jointly have

    Are you sure he didn’t mean AU55, the grade I’d give it with cleaning - def. a sell at 55 Euros

    He has a list of coins needed for certain sections of his collection. They only minted 500,000. Said he liked the look of it with the little fault in the 7 in the date and he wanted it.

    Yes, AU by American standards. €55 is a very strong offer.

    Not the best of photos to judge by, but I'll say AU-58. And 55 euros is way above market value. Take it!
