<p>[QUOTE=&quot;KLJ, post: 279919, member: 1910&quot;]But the challenge then for the guides becomes establishing how to define the various states of &quot;damaged.&quot;&nbsp; As der_meister77&nbsp; pointed out, a coin with a rim ding is damaged, and a coin with a hole in it is damaged, but the damage is different.&nbsp; My 1916D Merc is AG condition with a dent in the middle, but is easily recognizable, while my 1922 &quot;no D&quot; cent has VF details (according to its ANACS certification), but is heavily corroded, bent, and cleaned.&nbsp; I think the best the price guides can do is acknowledge that damaged coins can be sold, and then list the various types of damage (rim dings, holes, corrosion, etc.) in rough order of importance, with the caveat of &quot;buyer beware.&quot;[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
