A Shirriff coin grab bag here, led chronologically by 51 of 120 from 1960-61, with Hull, Mahovlich and Bower EX-ish with surface scratches on the clear “windows”, Geoffrion, Harvey and Moore showing more wear and Plante and Mikita each with a small edge chip. Intermittent edge chips and wear with the rest, with nothing appearing high grade. Some nicer ones are spotted amongst 61 of 120 from ’61-62, although not a star-studded lineup and with Hull low grade and Horton at VG. Overall, we’d say VG-EX for the group. Good star power in the batch of (44) from the condition sensitive ’62-63 metal issue, with most of the yellow-rimmed all-stars rough, including Howe, Hull, Plante, Mahovlich and Mikita, but with respectable examples of Keon, Hall and Harvey, along with similarly decent green-rimmed coins of Hull, Harvey and Plante (two different), along with Beliveau, Moore and Armstrong. Nothing bang-on with the metal jobs but still some interesting break-up value – Shirriff coins always find takers. A single throw-in from ’68-69 is a nice coin of Montreal’s Ralph Backstrom.
