<p>[QUOTE=&quot;brg5658, post: 1801277, member: 29751&quot;]Today was my first time to the MOON Show in the Minneapolis, MN area.&nbsp; I went with no particular idea of what to expect, but after my normal &quot;one-time-through browse&quot;, I stopped back at the few tables that caught my eye.&nbsp; In the end, I only purchased one coin for the day, but it was one that was on my want-list for quite some time.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>I found this nice example (pictured below) of a Half Crown that features the small rendition of St. George Slaying the Dragon on the reverse splitting the date.&nbsp; The fact that St. George is on a horse is one draw for my collecting niche -- another draw is that I simply have a hard time saying no to a coin with this amount of eye appeal that also pictures Queen Victoria. It was a nice perk that it was also a better date of the small half crown Jubilee Head series.</p><p><br /></p><p>It resides in a problem free older holder graded by one of the top two USA TPGs.&nbsp; <b>Feel free to give a stab at the grade if you so please.&nbsp; </b>Sorry for the scuffed up slab -- I did as much buffing as I could, but a few scuffs still remain and can be seen in my pictures below.</p><p><br /></p><p>Thanks for looking! <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>-Brandon</p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://i1202.photobucket.com/albums/bb364/brg5658/Photography-3/1892_GreatBritain_HalfCrown_GTG_obv_zpsdaf58672.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /> </p><p><img src="http://i1202.photobucket.com/albums/bb364/brg5658/Photography-3/1892_GreatBritain_HalfCrown_GTG_rev_zpsf98a19e3.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
