<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Breakdown, post: 682778, member: 19532&quot;]It is a good question and I have often thought it would be a good thread to discuss which series are more &quot;obverse-focused&quot; and which are at least equal between obverse and reverse.&nbsp; For some series, the obverse takes precedence and is more important than the grade on the reverse (for instance, Walking Liberty Halves).&nbsp; In that case, if the obverse is an AU50 and the reverse is an AU55, my sense is that the coin is probably going to be graded AU50 by the third party graders.&nbsp; However, some series actually place a great (and at least equal) emphasis on the reverse.&nbsp; A good example of this is the&nbsp; Buffalo nickel where the buffalo&#039;s horn and the hair on the buffalo&#039;s head and shoulder as well as the buffalo&#039;s tail are critical to the grade of the coin.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
