Description: Certified by Karl Stephens sold to my parents probably in 1980. ***NOTE: Listing has been revised and pictures updated after research into the grading scale used by Karl Stephens.*** RE his certification rubric - copy includes mispellings: "We have received questions from time to time about our grading of uncirculated coins. Wile we don’t use MS numbers in our lists as a rule, we do have a verbal description that corresponds to each number. Fortunately, the price ratio versus MS# on foreign coins is miniscule. For clarity, and for comparing on coin with another, we do feel as accurate a description as possible is desirable." Description on the package says:1959 Austria - 10 Grochen - Ch Proof [Choice]Y-90HS Along with a few other proof dates, the 1959 proof had a 0.2% frequency. From Numista: The Austrian coat of arms (the imperial eagle carrying the Austrian shield on its breast) with broken chains, which signify Austria as an independent country, and the country name as a stylized inscription, and denomination in the scalloped rim. * According to Karl Stephens website, Choice Proof translates to an MS number of 65.

Yes, I will combine shipping as coins are wee. :)
