Structurally, this specimen is in exceptional Uncirculated condition with full design relief. While the reverse boasts incredible eye appeal with strong mint lustre, the obverse suffers from harsh cleaning and surface hairlines. Because third-party grading services (such as PCGS or NGC) grade to the weakest side, this coin would be categorised as \"Uncirculated Details – Cleaned\" or \"Uncirculated Details – Scratch\" rather than receiving a numeric grade, offering collectors a high-relief example at a discounted rate.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Loose Change Coins","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51005901144311,"sku":"N#12501-Unc(92)","price":80.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0118\/3652\/2558\/files\/N_12501-Unc_92.jpg?v=1786146877","url":"https:\/\/loosechangecoins.com.au\/products\/1927-florin-parliament-house-canberra-florin-uncirculated-details-cleaned-altered","provider":"Loose Change Coins","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
