<p>[QUOTE=&quot;beef1020, post: 1447979, member: 24544&quot;]For large cents surface quality is a huge driver of price, and corrosion is just ahead of human damage as far as worst damage.&nbsp; For EAC grading they have a sharpness grade then they net for problems.&nbsp; So the coin you linked two might grade as 15 net 8 and would be considered Ave- at best.&nbsp; The CQR price on a net 8 Ave- s231 is $100 while the price for a Ave 15 is $400.&nbsp; So that surface condition knocks $300 off the price.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>I would grade the coin I linked to as 15 net 12 with a CQR price of 270, he is asking between 12 and 15 money for his coin.&nbsp; One thing I have noticed is with common varieties like these two, s231 and s241 the value takes a bath if they have serious surface problems because there are a lot of nice examples.&nbsp; With rare varieties you take the condition you get, but with common stuff you can be picky and price reflects this.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
