<p>[QUOTE=&quot;andy21us, post: 402179, member: 2452&quot;]I am a little more conservative then my fellow coin talkers when it comes to grading coins, maybe because I am no expert. But when grading coins you need to look at 4 area to determine the grade of that coin: Surface Preservation, Strike, Lustre, and Eye Appeal.</p><p><br /></p><p>With using a scanner trying to determine Lustre is going to be the trickest, but with all of them being scaned then you can compare the coins to each other to come up with a fair assumption.</p><p><br /></p><p>1935 - Toning is not uniformed, light blemishes on the reverse with rim ding at 2 and 10 o&#039;clock. MS 60/61.</p><p><br /></p><p>1938 - Very good Strike, two light blemish spots on Obverse, rim dings at 5 and 7 o&#039;colck. MS 61.</p><p><br /></p><p>1940S - A very nice coin, good Surface Preservation, Strike and Eye Appeal is very good on the Obverse but weak strike on the reverse, with good toning. MS 64</p><p><br /></p><p>1944S - The better of the four. Berely noticeable blemishes on the cheek and forehead. The Lustre and color would be the only question that would stop this coin from going MS 65.</p><p><br /></p><p>These are some very nice coins, congratulation.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
