<p>[QUOTE=&quot;medoraman, post: 1024379, member: 26302&quot;]Randy,</p><p><br /></p><p>If you want to get the series, the harder ones, especially in nice grades, are F, J, and M I have found. Maybe saying my F coins are dogs are unfair, since they are good considering others I have seen, short of $800 or more. They are scarce in all grades, especially above Fine. I have a VF coin but badly overstruck and one in F with strike weakness. They have coins labelled N and I believe O but its very debatable if they truly belong to this series.</p><p><br /></p><p>Doug was spot on when he said the predominant grading feature is Christ&#039;s face for most portraits. The level of detail there is what you will pay the money for, granted it is not corroded. For the seated portraits like F the full face is about impossible so the overall grade of the coin is what determines its value.</p><p><br /></p><p>Interestingly, there are many variants of these coins, especially the &quot;I&quot; reverses, so someone really researching them can buy very rare coins for common prices, but that kinda goes with most ancients I guess. </p><p><br /></p><p>Chris[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
