Thanks, I never thought I would ever get one. It's obviously the centre piece of my collection now. I also got this Java stiver from the same seller. Which I'm also really happy with given they couldn't get the details to strike properly.

 

You should have it graded , I would

 

I've been thinking about it like

 

We fired our guns and the British kept a coming there wasn't as quiet as many as there was a while ago, I will post my coin once I get it.

 

This was only a one-year design. I must admit I find it more interesting than the standard St. George and the Dragon design. And being a limited issue sovereign makes it more collectable.....

 

Nice Bull Head one year type!!

 

Thanks Jello but I think Laurel Head. The Bull Head was used in his silver coins and the face and neck muscles were much more pronounced???

 

I have learned something new.
Thank you

 

I'm sorry Jello. Didn't mean for it to sound like a lecture....hope you are not offended.

 

I never took that way.
I knew there was a difference between strike but didn't have my books. We're cool

 

I am trying to accumulate the full set. Still need the £2 coin

 

Really like these Australian silver coins.......

 

And one more.......90 years of Gallipoli

 

Wow the Proof that not found to easy. Nice pickup!

 

Thanks jello for the likes. Yes they aren't easy to find but the search continues....

 

Yes I know when I was in London 90% of coin shop's looked at me like I was crazy just for asking.
That was 1977 no grading at this time.

 

I've just added another coin I've wanted for a while the Ceylon rixdollar

 

Great grade !

 

Thanks, I tend to see these more often in higher grades than lower. I wonder to what extent they actually circulated..
