These coins are both VF details. </p><p><br /></p><p>The first one (from Stacks) has a dig on the obverse, a couple edge bumps, and a few scratches on the reverse. The damage is very minor, especially at this grade level, and the surfaces are otherwise choice and as original as they come, so I would be willing to pay 80-90% of problem-free value. It probably wouldn’t sell for that at auction because most collectors are incapable of looking beyond the “Details” label. It would have much less trouble selling for that raw.</p><p><br /></p><p>The second one, well... I’d place a value of 10-20% of problem-free value.</p><p><br /></p><p>Both have the same “grade”, but they are nowhere near the same quality nor value. It takes a lot of experience to holistically determine how much the damage affects the value. There really isn’t a set rule for it, and there can’t be.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]1134903[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1134904[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1134901[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1134902[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
