<p>[QUOTE=&quot;7Jags, post: 8370343, member: 78719&quot;]Well, what I can say is that in hand the piece is really incredible and possibly one of my favorite shillings - like it better even than very highly graded 1848/6, 1850 and 1854. The coin is extremely proof-like, not polished and at least under every light source I have tried lacking hairlines post minting.</p><p>BTW, the missing bits are not post mint damage but rather filled dies.</p><p>Some quite knowledgeable Brits that I won&#039;t reveal have looked at this coin and give it similar marks.</p><p>The grade?&nbsp; MS 62! I would buy any Vick shilling of same quality of any date as a 62.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
