<p>[QUOTE=&quot;GDJMSP, post: 3259258, member: 112&quot;]Tina, what Randy is saying here is pretty much THE basic concept in coin collecting when it comes to value -</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>In other words you can have 2 coins of the same date and same mint and one might be worth $300 and the other 3 cents. The thing that makes the difference and determines the value is the grade of the coin, and grade is nothing more than a way of describing the condition of the coin. For the coin to be worth $300 the grade has to be quite high, of exceptional condition in other words. As Randy said, pristine examples. And the chances of you having any like that is almost nil.</p><p><br /></p><p>That&#039;s the same basic message others have been trying to get across as well. When it comes to coin collecting there is just an awful lot that one has to learn and know. But it&#039;s a great hobby and it can be a lot of fun trying to learn all those things.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
