<p>[QUOTE=&quot;fiddlehead, post: 1884443, member: 31286&quot;]So a details coin is of no greater value than an ungraded coin.&nbsp; Yes, I think that is true from what I see.&nbsp; But given two ungraded coins of the same year and mint, the one that looks better, i.e, is in better condition, will be worth more to a buyer.&nbsp;&nbsp; And an ungraded or ungradable coin with high numismatic value, like say an 1870 CC double eagle for example, will be worth a heck of a lot more than any common date double eagle in MS65.&nbsp; If an ungradable/details coin is in nice shape, say AU details, will it be as valuable as one with a moderately low grade like say VF 25? Ungradable isn&#039;t the same as worthless - in gold value or collector value.&nbsp; It seems like ungraded details coins have their own market.&nbsp; I notice that some dealers have a lot of them, and others won&#039;t touch them.&nbsp; Personally, I don&#039;t own them.&nbsp; But if somehow I came across an 1861 Paquet reverse double eagle that was cleaned, or even had major rim damage or something, it would be hard to resist at a super low price <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
