[QUOTE="lordmarcovan, post: 2573306, member: 10461"]Just what I call "satiny" luster, is all. But please don't ask me to define that. LOL. Regardless what you call it, that's a beautiful coin. I've long been fond of the thistles, shamrocks, and rose in that reverse design. Oh- [B]speaking of George IV[/B], I just bought a shilling. I was given this coin in 1993, sold it in 1994 when I hit hard times, and the friend I sold it to sold it himself just after the millennium. Then, by complete serendipity, I stumbled across it late this summer on the Atlas Numismatics website. I knew I had to have it back. So, 23 years after I initially acquired it, and 22 years after I last saw it, this came back home to me. It cost me 4-1/2 times what I got for it in the 1994 sale, but so what. My Box of 20 needed an error coin. And I need to do the writeup on this and add it in its own thread. [IMG]http://images.pcgs.com/TrueView/33019522_Large.jpg[/IMG][/QUOTE]
