I can't see anything special about it, unless I'm missing something?360490069416 (link appreciated)I think if you could sort out the bend then it would be quite a nice coin. The detail is good (VF or so, apart from maybe a few scratches). The problem being that it can be quite tricky straightening the things without leaving an obvious crease. But maybe someone feels confident? Quote

But maybe someone feels confident?Looks possible when viewed from the reverse, but I think that's deceptive! When viewing from the obverse that crease is so acute that even with heat it would probably leave an ugly big stress line! It also looks to me to have been struck across the bust (where's Peter?) a couple of times with an iron, it looks stepped, and deformed generally! And what does the rest of that crown look like?£85 last time I looked! Wow!I've love to see the coin post treatment! Quote
