<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Martha Lynn, post: 8252373, member: 101796&quot;]I would think there are basically three values to a coin.</p><p>&nbsp;&nbsp; Face value is the denomination. 5 cents, 25 cents.</p><p>&nbsp;&nbsp; Precious or semi precious metals content of the coin.</p><p>&nbsp;&nbsp; Numismatic value. Which would include for example is it scarce ? Is it an error ? These attributes will add value over the face.</p><p>&nbsp;&nbsp; The grade of the coin will probably only affect the third category. The better the grade of any particular coin will make it more difficult to find in that grade, back to scarcity. If you&#039;re buying a coin to melt out the gold, you probably don&#039;t care about the grade. Is the numismatic value more than the gold ? ....martha[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
