withdrawn Victoria shield half sovereign 1866

[geowill989]

Hello all,

For sale here is a really nice example of a Victorian half sovereign. This particular one came off die number 10. Lots and lots of detail here, coming out at around the gEF mark, with some remaining lustre. Though it should be noted that this coin was likely wiped at some point in the past and would not make a great candidate for grading.

One in c**p condition recently sold on eBay for £315. I'm offering this belter at £380 posted SD.

Shame about the pictures... the camera on my new phone is rubbish!

Thanks, Chris, but not one for me as I agree with the seller that this has been cleaned. Such a shame and a good reminder to not clean coins!!!
