<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Pickin and Grinin, post: 3094894, member: 73995&quot;]It is in your best benefit to read for a while on the minting process and grading. I am not saying don&#039;t look at coins, but get yourself more acclimated to the process&#039;s that need to be learned in order make money from a coin. </p><p>Something that most newbies don&#039;t understand is that the grade of the coin, will always matter more that the actual Error, or Variety itself. The better the grade the t=better the price. </p><p><br /></p><p>Let&#039;s put into these terms, Below is a retained interior die break, This coin is actually attributed three times in cuds on coins. It is a retained interior die break, an Interior die break and a has a cud. <a href="http://cuds-on-coins.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/09/73072600-300x2961.jpg" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://cuds-on-coins.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/09/73072600-300x2961.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://cuds-on-coins.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/09/73072600-300x2961.jpg</a>[ATTACH=full]781815[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]781816[/ATTACH] </p><p>It is absolutely beautiful and in Mint uncirculated grade.</p><p>Worth? What someone will pay for it. Let&#039;s say $20 to $50</p><p>now lets say the grade (details) of this coin was circulated.</p><p><br /></p><p>More like this one. This is a 57D with multiple die chips on the obv. I haven&#039;t seen this one in hand in a while so I will do the best from my photos. Do you see the wear on the high points of Lincoln? (discoloration) Cheek bone, fore head, hair etc. And the multiple deep marks from circulation (damage). This would be graded XF45 to AU50. It has a very dull luster in the fields, the only full mint luster resides next to devices (letters, portrait, wheat stalks) the rest has mostly been worn away. This one is much less worthy of a high price because it has been circulated. It still may have a cool factor to some, but for the folks that are willing to pay top dollar? They have seen others that make this coin much less note worthy, and wouldn&#039;t touch it, unless it was cheap enough.[ATTACH=full]781820[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]781821[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
