You don't often see these this close to EF. It's a very attractive coin in the hand. What's not to like?
Delightfully high grade example with more original lustre than my photo has managed to capture. I've never had one this good.
There are plenty of these about, so you can afford to wait till a nice one comes along. I think this is a really nice one.
I am really starting to enjoy exploring Early Milled. When I think of how long I put it off for... don't make the same mistake as me - get stuck in!
Sixpences are somewhat scarcer than the equivalent Shillings from the 1787 issue. It turns out that the missing hearts are an accidental omission, rather than a designed omission. 40 years collecting and I'm still learning new things :)
I spent a good ten minutes exploring this one with a loupe, trying to find some evidence of wear, but I really struggled. Each leaf vein is still sharp, the hairlines go right to the end of each curl, but it does have slight discolouration that, if anything, the photo exaggerates.
Common in low grades, quite rewarding in middle grades, but by the time you get to this level with these, they are serious coins. Take them seriously
The entire shipment of 1827 pennies ended up in Tasmania, perhaps by way of the West Indies. The climate and long sea voyages in wooden crates resulted in the vast majority of remaining examples displaying the porosity you can see on this one. Not a great deal of actual wear though, as the Union Flag on the shield will testify.

It's ever so difficult to find William IV shillings, of any date, that are this good. Don't try and complete Victoria first, whatever you do!
