A heavily cleaned coin, and probably once has been mounted. There is a trace of mounting in 2 o'clock and 8 o'clock position on reverse.

Yes, parts of the rim look like mounted or repaired.
And no doubt it looks cleaned from the picture.
Its a pity.
Otherwise its quite a nice coin :)
Yes, I think I want to continue my pursue for Queen V's coin. Although it is quite a bit expensive.
