<p>[QUOTE="Barry Murphy, post: 3565066, member: 79368"]Without seeing the obverse it’s impossible for anyone to tell what the surface grade would be. And a 5 isn’t perfect, it’s top 20% for the type and grade. Also, the reverse on this coin, being nothing more than a punch, is weighted less than the obverse. If the coin is only CEF or AU, it’s can have some issues and still be a 5 surface. If it’s mint state it would have to be much nicer to be a 5. </p><p><br /></p><p>This is a useless exercise. </p><p><br /></p><p>Barry Murphy[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
