<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Dynoking, post: 3089046, member: 81795&quot;]You found a nice looking coin while CRH, congratulations! While it may not be worth the expense of having it graded by a TPG you could use it to learn how to grade coins on your own. A good place to start is pcgs.com. PCGS has several videos that will give you a basic understanding of the grading process. You will also find a function called photo grade which uses pictures to match the condition of your coin.&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; Try a &#039;net search &quot;how to grade a Jefferson nickel&quot;. There is a web site called the spruce were you can find out about basic coin grading. A couple of good books on the topic are The Art and Science of Grading Coins by Jason Poe and The Official American Numismatic Association Grading Standards for United States Coins, edited by Kenneth Bressett.</p><p>&nbsp; After you understand the basics repost your coin with the grade that you think it is and why. Some of the best minds in the business are on this site and will be happy to help you. </p><p>Welcome to Coin Talk and the hobby. I look forward to your next post. Happy collecting![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
