I agree but reluctant to name and shame in case of repercussions to be honest! Just one bad experience, and not too expensive, but it was enough! Mine was just a low value coin, a G3 graded as EF that was more like nVF, an early mistake.

NVF to EF is a hell of a long way in terms of grading and in price terms also. A very poor dealer if that's the case and one that should be struck off your list of places to look.

Its something I don't understand about some people, if you want repeat business then surely you grade a lot more accurately than that, they're only shooting themselves in the foot for a 1 time sale....

The outer Rim look worn as does the milled edge. Also there looks like damage just beneath the last A in Gratia. Portrait looks ok however from my experience the coinage of G IV was very well made. For the £20 you paid you cant go wrong. I'd value the coin at around £100. 

Again as a comparison here my EF 1825 Halfcrown - Ex Slaney Collection

 

He said he paid only £20 more than £125 for the 2nd GVF that was uploaded by Michael roo Alan, so £145 plus postage I'm assuming

Again as a comparison here is my 1826 half crown, bought at Spink auction last September and described as EF, which I agree with

Looks much better than EF
