Looks a lot different, HUH?

Title: Re: 1951 PL 6d Post by: Erik on October 19, 2008, 03:34:11 PM Very nice coin latman !!! :) :) I know it is 41 Slovak koruna and it is really cheap very nice coin. I think you bought very good. ;)
Title: Re: 1951 PL 6d Post by: justabeginner on October 19, 2008, 05:47:01 PM Erik, thats not a Slovakian coin :) It's an Australian 1951PL Sixpence coin. Its is silver and PL is the mintmark I think... :O)
Title: Re: 1951 PL 6d Post by: KurtS on October 19, 2008, 11:08:27 PM Latman--very nice find! Would you say that's aUNC or better...and nice price! ;D
That's also a well-struck reverse; nice detail on the emu. Is that a die crack below the roo's tail? I think Erik was comparing this to a Slovak Koruna--not mistaking for a Slovakian coin ;D Title: Re: 1951 PL 6d Post by: latman on October 20, 2008, 12:00:30 PM That is a die crack Kurt. Thought you would pick that up. This is a pretty common coin, and easy to find in high grades. I have a better example already, but someone I know got me interested in die cracks and the such. When I get a better camera, I will post a pic of the '21m 3d I have. It is a beautiful choice uncirculated with die cracks galore, best I have ever seen.
Title: Re: 1951 PL 6d Post by: KurtS on October 21, 2008, 11:34:22 AM Wow...I would really like to see that coin! :o I have a few from the 40s with cracks, but nothing from George V.
