I'm terrible at grading, but I think I would call that VF.

The Farthing is VF and I personally think a very nice coin as it is much nicer than the average coin of that grade.
The Half Penny is also very nice and is also in VF condition.
The Florin is in Fair condition, not in Poor condition because the inscription is still ledgible. If you have bought it at the price you quoted on the other post it was a fair price after all it's a nice wee chunk of silver.

You have no idea... if you really want to get good coins about to get melted, quite a few places in Britain and the US have real nice coins about to go in the melter.
ie Maundy coins, 1888-O "hot lips" morgan, Columbian expo halfs, quite a few nice things.

I would wait and get a higher grade of the florin, its cool but you will only want to upgrade at a later date. Trust me I know that's pretty much what I'm doing now !
The halfpenny gets my vote from the half I can see via the mobile app !

How is it better than the florin? The florin will always have value no matter the condition the coin is in. Yes a half penny is nice, yet if one can afford to secure an item that will hold its value for a longer period of time, then one to consider such investments.
