<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Publius2, post: 25293408, member: 105571&quot;]Obviously a matter of opinion so here&#039;s mine FWIW:</p><p><br /></p><p>No, dings do not get the details designation every time.&nbsp; It depends on a number of factors including severity of the ding, number of dings, and how worn the coin. </p><p><br /></p><p>For this coin, the reverse scratch is the more serious defect so it&#039;s the one that gets listed on the label.&nbsp; Those rim dings are not that bad but it could have gone either way in the grading room.&nbsp; In general, my impression is that the lower grade the coin, the more forgiving the graders will be which makes sense - a well circulated and worn coin is expected to exhibit a certain amount of wear and tear.&nbsp; So a small rim ding on a F-15 coin might not merit a details grade but the same coin in a AU-58 grade with the same rim ding might very well get a details grade.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
