1813 New South Wales Dump PCGS XF45
The 1813 Dump is one of Australia's most iconic coins, minted alongside the legendary Holey Dollar to address the colony’s early currency shortage. Struck in colonial Sydney, it remains a cornerstone for collectors, historians, and investors chasing provenance and rarity. The present coin stands well above most: it is crisply struck and well centred, with clear detail from the host coin, visually clean, and free of pitting, edge knocks, discolouration, or planchet flaws. If you’re building a serious collection, this coin is a must-have. Ex-1940s Sydney dealer Dave Raymond; ex-Noble Numismatics, Sale 92 (November 2009). Rarely offered in this grade, and second-finest graded by PCGS (2/26). Professional Coin Grading Service is the global leader in coin authentication and grading. With over 60 million coins graded and counting, PCGS is trusted by collectors, dealers, and investors to certify authenticity, protect value, and elevate market confidence. This is a direct conversion of the 70-point PCGS grade to a 10-point scale, intended to present the grade in a more intuitive format for newer collectors. It is not our personal opinion or an attempt at regrading the coin to a different standard.
