<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Scrap Metal, post: 375391, member: 14629&quot;]They do not get grades with holes in them. That basically puts the coin in a bullion category. One of the things that graders look for is holes that have been filled. They send such coins back ungraded.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>If you are interested in practicing grading, get <i>The Official American Numismatic Association Grading Standards for United States Coins </i>and<i> The Red Book, A Guide Book Of United States Coins.&nbsp; </i>You should also get <i>The Coin Collector&#039;s Survival Manual, </i>by Scott Travers.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
