How do we grade gold and silver coins in Northern Virginia?
Accuracy and experience are paramount. Coin grading determines not only aesthetic quality but also monetary value using the standardized Sheldon scale (1-70).
Overall Condition
Grading based on luster, surface preservation, and mint quality. Toning can affect grading positively or negatively.
Surface Examination
Carefully examining for wear. Perfect coins (MS60-MS70) show no wear. Circulated coins graded by visible wear (AG3-AU58).
Mintage Quality
Assessing how well details are rendered. Poor mintage can lower a grade even if the surface is flawless.
