<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Razz, post: 8537638, member: 100526&quot;]So Numista is a big help. There are 2 varieties on the 1953 coins (4 on the farthings) based on 2 obverses with Obverse 2 having a &quot;clearer portrait&quot; and bead count and other markers. The coins in the plastic sets are all obverse 1, with obverse 2 on the circulation coins.</p><p><br /></p><p>Here is the half crown after acetone. Pretty much did the trick. A slight bit of hazing around some of the legend. Interestingly you can see some areas where the fields were struck well and where some planchet chatter still remains.[ATTACH=full]1508414[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1508415[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
