Canadian coins grading - 25 cents 1937 to 1952 - George VI
The obverse shows a representation of George VI. It was designed by Thomas Humphrey Paget, an English medal and coin designer and modeller.
Highest points of wear are the ear, the hairlines and the eyebrow.
G-4
Major illustrations and features are evident as outlines. Although the coin overall is heavily worn.
VG-8
Full rim with clearly discernable illustrations and features. Most legends are readable clearly, but the whole coin is still significantly worn.
VF-20
Clearly readable but lightly worn legends, illustrations show good detail, rims are clean, but the whole coin shows moderate wear on the high points and a little wear below.
EF-40
Legends are sharp, illustrations are clear with slight but obvious wear on the high points.
AU-50
Sharp legends and illustrations show only a trace of wear on the highest points. There must be some remaining mint luster.
MS-60 to MS-70
Coins of these grades are uncirculated. The only traces of wear on these coins come from the contact with each other during their production at the Mint. The difference between these grades is too small to be reproduced in pictures and images.
