Condition: For international buyers, please note that the new US postal rates for overseas shipping are very high and we are unable to change them.

The coin has nice even honest wear to the high points and has scratches as well as some minor bag marks throughout. The obverse is very well preserved and the queen's face retains quite a bit of details of the face, the hair and the laureate. The reverse also has nicely preserved details with wear to the face of Britannia. The coin is much better than the photos suggest. Please see photos for additional condition information.
