[Coin-Flipper]

Hi guys,


Give that only 80k we're minted and I may not know exactly how many are left...what grade would you guys consider this to be?

Thanks for your help!

Wearwise, VF-30+, but the surface sends up flags for me. Many many 50 cents are being faked, even the common ones. It's hard to define/opine something when it's not in your hand.

Thanks for the opinions but honestly I am no expert in counterfeit products. Are you referencing to the toning being greenish-uneven??

Appreciate your inpu anyways....I love the hobby...but I can see why it would be a counterfeit. Only 80k minted, last year of queen Victoria and presumably a VF20 the above photo it's CV -380.
