<p>[QUOTE=&quot;LA_Geezer, post: 3234626, member: 89393&quot;]Agreed, but Jason&#039;s photos leave a lot to be desired. [USER=33176]@Kentucky[/USER] recommended an out of print book to me which has only drawings in it for illustrations, it&#039;s Brown &amp; Dunn&#039;s <i>A Guide To The Grading of United States Coins</i>. It does a more than commendable job in the text, though, and quite useful. He also mentioned another book, James Ruddy&#039;s <i>Photograde: Official Photographic Grading Guide for United States Coins</i>, but I haven&#039;t gotten around to getting this one yet.</p><p><br /></p><p>I would want to mention the Numismatic Acronyms thread in the CT FAQ section. This hasn&#039;t been updated since 2015, but is still quite useful. I have it bookmarked in my browser so that I can save steps whenever I want to consult it. There&#039;s not much here in terms of grading acuity, but otherwise invaluable, IMHO.</p><p><br /></p><p><a href="https://www.cointalk.com/threads/cointalks-numismatic-acronym-glossary.257793/" class="internalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.cointalk.com/threads/cointalks-numismatic-acronym-glossary.257793/">https://www.cointalk.com/threads/cointalks-numismatic-acronym-glossary.257793/</a>[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
