<p>[QUOTE=&quot;900fine, post: 643501, member: 6036&quot;]This omits one vital step : assignment of Choice, Average, or Scudzy.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Consider two coins, both EAC 40. </p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>One has 40 details and no problems - net grade EAC 40. The coin qualifies as &quot;choice&quot;.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>The other has AU58 details but several problems - lightly cleaned,&nbsp; recolored, a few minor rim bumps. Not too bad. Net EAC 40, designated average.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Both coins are 40, but the choice coin with less detail usually commands a higher price than the problem coin with more meat.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>And CQR shows the all three categories, and sometimes adds Average+ and Average-. In all cases, meatier problem coins show less value in CQR.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>In fact, CQR gives rarity ratings R.1 through R.8 for the designations Choice, Average, and Scudzy ! IOW, a given die variety might be an R.3 on the whole, but is R.6 in choice ![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
