Most people do some kind of similar internal process.</p><p><br /></p><p>1.Dont combine obverse and reverse. Grade is typically the obverse UNLESS the reverse is substantially worse, when it takes the overall grade down. So a VG8 obverse with a F12 reverse is still VG8 and a VG8 obverse with a AG3 reverse (say a lot of cabinet wear) is an AG3.</p><p><br /></p><p>2. As you learn more about a specific coin series, you will learn that some areas are more important than others. Which is a nice way of saying that a little (not a lot) of extra wear in a less important area isn&#039;t as big a negative. Look at 100 coins, compare your grades to people you respect and trust and you will learn how to adjust your map.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
