<p>[QUOTE="TheFinn, post: 3226470, member: 90102"]The other thing that is done in European grading is to grade the coin technically, them describe why. So a 1924-S Buffalo nickel without a full horn, but has full luster may be graded as "gVF, as struck" to identify the coin as uncirculated, but struck in VF grade due to the amount of details shown. Some Lincoln cents struck in the '20s, like a 1922-D or no D with a weak or worn die may be said to be in Fine for details, but as struck to describe that the weakness isn't from wear. Much easier to identify a correct grade and condition, and thus price.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
