On the other hand, the medal on her shoulder could have disappeared altogether and the coin would still grade as Fine.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>So your coins are between F and VF; would you believe GF?</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Usual caveat: I&#039;m an enthusiast, not an expert.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Later,</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>John[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
