<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Jwt708, post: 2416123, member: 32619&quot;]Yes, absolutely. Grading with exonumia is similar to ancients. Sure mint state might be appealing but you may never find another example of that worn, holed, corroded token you just found. It&#039;s all relative and challenging. I feel that holding out until a better example comes along doesn&#039;t apply very well to the tokens I collect thought this isn&#039;t a hard rule.</p><p><br /></p><p>Now CWTs I think suffer from being &quot;cool enough&quot; to get swept up in the hype of grading like other U.S. coins and there&#039;s a strong enough market to support the prices. There will be tokens, regardless of grade or details designation, that will command strong prices just because you can&#039;t get one and there are enough collectors after them. Case in point - I cannot locate a McCord or Mildenhall token and I&#039;ve only heard of one being auctioned off several years ago that went for strong money.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
