Hello, I would appreciate an appraisal of my 1895 Z.A.R. 1 Shilling. Thank you.

The "melt" value is about $10. The NGC price guide puts it at around $95 for very fine; I'd say yours is on the border of fine and very fine. Realistically they trade lower at shows raw, so if I priced it to sell I'd probably ask $65-75. Realistically they are trading for about half that on eBay, one recently sold in a PCGS holder certified VF35 for $47. If I were buying it I'd probably offer $25 and would take $35-40 at a show. It's not a high grade beauty, but a nice type coin with original toning, not to be messed with.
