| | Coin grading - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Coin grading has evolved over the years to a system of finer and finer grade distinctions, particularly when talking about US coins. | | | This numerical system was used primarily within the community of large copper collectors (a very specialized part of numismatics that often has its own ideas about things compared to the rest of the coin collecting community) until the mid 1980s. | | | The idea was to make coins easily tradable on an open market. |

| | German Coin Grading |
| | American coins may also be graded on a numerical scale from 1 to 70, with 70 being the finest. | | | Thus, a certified coin is easier to sell to an American collector than a "raw" coin; the opposite is true when dealing with a German collector. | | | Most likely, you heard it from an American coin dealer, and most likely, you heard it while you were trying to sell your coins. |

| | The firm is responsible for dramatic improvements throughout the rare coin industry which have forever changed the way rare coins are bought and sold. | | | In 1948, a well-known numismatist by the name of Dr. William Sheldon attempted to standardize coin grading by proposing what is now known as the Sheldon Scale. | | | NGC - NGC was founded in 1987, hundreds of thousands of coins are submitted to NGC each year by collectors and dealers who have confidence in our ability and integrity as a third-party grading service. |

| | Coin-Gallery Online - Grading U.S. Coins |
| | Adjectives used to describe a coin's grade often relate to a number on this scale of 1-70. | | | As with MS-68 coins, the fields on smaller coins are usually nearly flawless, especially on the obverse. | | | The late Dr. William H. Sheldon devised a grading scale of 1-70, with 1 being a barely identifiable piece and 70 being a flawless specimen. |

| | US Coin Grading |
| | The key to making the coin hobby successful on a large scale was finding a standard grading scale. | | | Even if a coin is produced in relatively small quantities, if there is no demand for it, the price will reflect that lack of demand. | | | Sheldon came up with numerical grades of 7 to 10 for Very Good, 12 to 15 for Fine, 20 to 30 for Very Fine, 40 for Extremely Fine, 50 for About Uncirculated, and 60 to 70 for Mint State. |

| | (Coin Grading Page) |
| | Establishing the grade of a coin will never be an accurate science but most dealers who sell coins for a living and most collectors who have seriously collected coins for a number of years do have a fair idea of the (albeit unofficial) grade and therefore the value of their coins. | | | For a coin to grade as FDC it should be in the top 2% of that range. | | | The attractiveness and desirability of coins displaying such attributes is very much in the eye of the beholder. |

| | Circulated coins will have varying degrees of surface wear as a result of handling. | | | Mintstate coins must have absolutely no visible signs of wear on any part of the coin's surface. | | | Early standards for grading coins used as few as six descriptive or adjectival terms: Good, Very Good, Fine, Very Fine, Extremely Fine and Uncirculated, to describe grades. |

| | Coin Grading Services - Coin Authentication |
| | All told, coin slabs can be particularly appropriate for older or more valuable specimens or for those collectors creating "registry sets" with newer coins. | | | They provide a measure of security that a coin is authentic, that it hasn't been tampered with, and that it has market appeal, which can be worth the premium that you typically pay for slabbed coins. | | | But some coin grading companies grade considerably more liberally than others, which can cause unsuspecting buyers to pay considerably more for a coin than they would otherwise. |

| | The Five Components of Coin Grading |
| | The Sheldon grading scale is now used by most numismatists. | | | As collectors become more savvy, they are often attracted to coins with pleasing natural color. | | | In other words, if one collector tells another that he has an About Uncirculated-50 Charlotte half eagle, both collectors should have an expectation of what the coin should look like, even if one has never seen it, due to the implications of its grade. |
