Very Good. What an impressive piece of silver. These were the first currency used in Australia, in fact our Holey Dollar and dumps were manufactured from these coins I believe. Not being a coin grader, I am not even going to attempt a Fine grading, suffice to say it has some paperwork with it saying Fine. It is worn, most of the lettering is still visible. The outer rim design is still visible. A great piece of history, over 200 years old, this is most impressive. Grade: N/A Estimate: $200 - 300
