Yes, I'd like to see the florin. I have one with the security edge from Mauritius(?) flan.
Quite possible and wish I weighed it but bought it slabbed.
Certainly a bit more interesting than a "run of the mill" 1963 - which I shamefully DO NOT HAVE!
I got this several years ago, and it now seems there is an increased interest in such. The coin has a lovely appearance with a sheen of lustre...
For entertainment purposes only: Here is the obverse of a graded "63" [ATTACH]
Yes, and so many dipped that are higher grade....
LM, your points are well taken though. This era of coins still go cheap, and is where I started. I actually have a PCGS63 example that is not near...
This is a coin that does not get much interest until of higher grade and can be found at some expense up to the lower MS grades, but becomes a...

Not that you directly asked, but I probably would. They occasionally have their own issues as well though...
Welcome to their world. I once politely emailed them about an obvious error in their census and they were quite rude, doubling down on the error...
And this OP serves a value IMHO to those reading it - the TPGs are there as a service, but occasionally get not only a bit too full of themselves...
And a point well made. The other thing is that for those of us that are not as young as we used to be have coins that may well have to be sold,...
As I've said - I have gotten really pissed at some of the grading at TPGs lately. Not all grading, but on occasions like this they really miss the...
Umm, we were talking about Mary Gillick's book.
In competitive sets based on grade, some coins get more ranking points if they are more rare or desirable
I will tell you that between me and probably one of the most recognized experts in pre-decimal milled Brit coinage that they would not back off...
And that is putting it mildly as well as euphemistically...
I am rather shocked at that and question the grading. I have been attacked on the PCGS site for attacking inconsistent grading but this one is bad...
