I has some phew coins of diferent o the same years, and knowing all this about the values of coins and that the better state of the coin better the value.. but here are my questions: 1- What part of the coin gives more value to it if in good condition? is it the picture in the middle? or the text around it? here are is a coin, but for the example each side of it is a diferent coin. 1st side- Pretty clear text around the coin, but the face in the middle is pretty damaged. http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y30/Leuquim/Coins008.jpg 2nd side-Pretty clear image in the center, but the word around the coin have been half eated. http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y30/Leuquim/Coins007.jpg So, if each side is a coin, wich would be worth more? or they are both worth the same? This isin't really coin values but... 2-Ok So i've got a english black commemorative coin, and it has this scrach on it ( i haven't done it -.-) i i wondered if it was posible to cover that up with something or..? Here it is: http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y30/Leuquim/Coins012.jpg
No one part of a coin determines it's grade, it's a sum of all it's parts. It's not uncommon for one side of a coin to be different grade than the other side. I love the old cartwheel, just bought one of those for myself. The scratch can't be fixed any way that I know of, except by wear. You could put it in your pocket and wear it down......but other that that, you are stuck with the scratch.
