<p>[QUOTE=&quot;bromac4, post: 161730, member: 663&quot;]Here is my understanding of how the grading designation works,I&#039;m sure other more knowledgable members can expand on it.</p><p>Coins are graded with numbers from 1 to 70 with several designations within that being used most frequently. These are: good-4,very good-8,fine-12,very fine-20,extra fine-40,about uncirculated-50 and mint state from 60 to 70. Most price guides don&#039;t show values for coins above MS-65.</p><p>ICCS, International Coin Certification Service,is a Canadian third party grading service considered to be the authority for Canadian coins. At major Canadian coin auctions ICCS graded coins will usually bring significantly higher prices than coins in the same grade from other TPG&#039;s.</p><p>Prices from the trends section of Canadian Coin News,the most up to date and most often quoted guide for Canadian coins&nbsp; are: 1959 1¢- MS-65 $75.00,1951 1¢-MS-65 $300.00</p><p><br /></p><p>Bill[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
