<p>[QUOTE=&quot;susanlynn9, post: 34418, member: 1258&quot;]I&#039;ve seen various rim nicks that didn&#039;t affect the overall grade and some that did. I know how subjective this is going to sound, but it all depends on how distracting it is. </p><p><br /></p><p>On the Seated Liberty quarter, I see a very sharp strike, great head detail, and sharp design details. The fields are pretty clear. I don&#039;t see a rim ding at 8 o&#039;clock, but I do see a darker area at 4 o&#039;clock on the obverse (is this lighting, toning, or a mark?) and two small ones at 5 o&#039;clock and 6:30 on the reverse. </p><p><br /></p><p>Assuming that the dark area on the obverse is toning, this coin is in EF40 condition in my opinion. I don&#039;t tend to deduct for very small nicks on the reverse, though they should always be disclosed upon the sale of the coin.</p><p><br /></p><p>I&#039;m sure that there are others who don&#039;t agree with this method, but I know what works for me.</p><p><br /></p><p>Hey Prethen, see if you can see these pictures. They&#039;re taken right from the auction.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
