[QUOTE="j0nnyjo, post: 423223, member: 15364"]Hi everyone, I've been increasingly tempted to start collecting Indian Quarter or maybe even Half Gold Eagles as a long-time fan of this series...but I'm concerned about my relative ineptitude at accurately grading these, especially among the mint state grades. I know these are traditionally challenging to grade, but does anyone have any basic tips that might be able to give a newbie a little direction - specifically distinguishing the low to mid mint states (MS61-MS64).
