I think the AU grade was of the American standard John, which is EF UK standard. I think its better than GVF personally, although i would say that i suppose, but whatever, it shall be weighed, measured etc etc etc, as someone else said Eddie is notouriously difficult to capture in an light, but i hope it's as nice as it looks when it arrives. The same seller has an 1821 farthing, unfortunately he's saying it's proof, which its not, as i looked through the topic coling started about the very same coin last week ish, still a nice coin, but not the proof type he's saying. I shall inform him of this when mine has been sent out, don't want any cockups there
