WOWSY! I'd call it Fantastic and call it a day. This is a very nice condition coin. I'll say VF40.

 

I am at 35 great coin!

 

I'm in at XF 45, but I know nothing about the coin in question.

 

I recognize the Hibernia part. I'm not familiar with the type I should say in regards to strike. Is ita well struck issue? I do know most I've seen are much more worn than this. I think the obverse is better and possibly AU50. The reverse looks much weaker and I'd say XF40 for it. So I net graded it!

 

XF-40

 

XF45 I say relatively confidently.

 

Now I am thinking I really low balled this one.

 

AU-53

 

45

 

Any more guesses? I’ll do the reveal tomorrow.

 

Like others, I know nothing about grading these. Mine is low grade. I'll go out on a limb and say XF-45, just because I like the coin.

 

You need to grade this coin by the obverse. The flatness on the resverse, which might lead you to say VF or EF, is due to the strike.

 

AU 55 ....obverse looks super strong and I'm guessing the reverse is a weak strike (initially I was thinking it was an XF grade but the obverse suggests its much nicer)

 

I'm guessing XF45 and with a little luck AU50, but the reverse bothers me just a bit.
