Condition Report

This coin is a plain edge example. The illustrations on our website show the spotting to the obverse and reverse, but there is also a very faint line to George’s cheek and some very light wear to the finish to St George’s helmet and sash. Both of these faults are very minor.

Buying a pre-loved, antique, or vintage item not only provides you with unique style and value for money but it also helps to reduce landfill, and the annual emissions of an antique or vintage piece can be as little as one sixteenth of those of its new equivalent!
