Mohawk 2,866 posts Report post Posted May 23 Gotcha.....from my experience, it's rare for PCGS graded Canadian coins to get an upgrade at NGC, but it's not impossible. I'd say worst case scenario, you're solid at 64 based on the photos. Best of luck, though! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Philoraxis 1 post Report post Posted May 24 (edited) I am new to the forums so if this is in the wrong place feel free to direct me elsewhere. I love to metal detect and I found this item recently. I have done a little research and think it may be a hammered lead coin (the weight sure feels like lead). Any help with this would be great. The loop looks modern and the hole is rather ragged and not cut straight. Edited May 24 by Philoraxis Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

They do come nice but that's no reason to limit the grade. That's easily a MS65 coin, even 66 with luster is not out of the question. It's virtually mark free.
