four edward shillings

[pies 33]

so my book on grading still hasnt arrived so im making a more educated guess on the grades

so from left to right

EF VF EF FINE

Really need to sort this uploading of pic lark im not happy at all the 1910 coin should be alot more golden than it does and it looks like its been cleaned but in the hand it certainly hasnt I shall have to try my camera and the sizes have gone to pot

on the second 1902 obverse it looks like it has a long curved scratch it dosent its a hair on the scanner

any opinions am i close

[pies 33]

these pics of the 1910 are better

[copper123 1,485]

NEF- VF- NEF-G.FINE in my opinion -

[Peckris 579]

The two 1902 shillings are certainly at least EF.

The 1910 is better than VF I'd say - there is some wear to the hair (always the first to go), the remainder shows little. I'd say GVF or perhaps even a bit better.

The 1905 is less than Fine - I'd rate it Fair.

I agree with these grade, love the toning on the 1910 too!

I think it is

Poor

Good

Fair

Fine

Very Fine

Extremely Fine

Uncirculated

with variations including near, about, plus, good (as a prefix), BU (brilliant uncirculated), and FDC (Fleur de Coin)

But I might not have it quite right! Hope that helps!!

You'd be forgiven, the way some dealers jump straight to Fine for everything below VF.

Fair is better than Poor, but less than Fine. For example, if there's no hair left on the portrait it's Fair. If the main elements of design (e.g. the lion face) is worn flat, it's Fair. To be Fair, the legend has to be completely readable.

On your better picture, I'd rate the '05 Fair+ but it's definitely not Fine.

My 1869 penny just about rates as Fair, but only just.

Fair comment

Im actually quite pleased that im not miles apart in my very basic grading, being no more than one full grade away is better than i was last week

the 1910 is currently my fav coin it looks the muts nuts in the hand not a high grade but lots of eye appeal

[1949threepence 3,367]

EF - VF - GEF - Fair to near fine

Would be my assessment

[pies 33]

Would the above florin grade as GVF

ta

[Peckris 579]

Would the above florin grade as GVF

ta

Yes, I'd say that was a fair grading. GVF I mean. Not Fair

[Red Riley 2]

Yes, I'd say that was a fair grading. GVF I mean. Not Fair

I'd go along with that.

[Peter 615]

Yes, I'd say that was a fair grading. GVF I mean. Not Fair

I'd go along with that.

Decent Edward V11 florins are difficult to find at a reasonable price.The last date letter wears quickly.

[pies 33]

Well i paid £40 for that hope i didnt overpay

Still like the coin i prefer my 1910 shilling though

No, I wouldn't say so.
