Hi ECS,
Your idea is interesting, although I'd imagine possibly a little self-defeating?
My thoughts are that by the time someone has taken the time to identify specific features (or lack thereof), they are probably fairly close to determining their own rough position on grade.
The mind is a magnificent super-computer, and a lot of the distinctions and specifics are subconsciously considered.
Don't let me discourage you though, if you are thinking of doing something. It is a very interesting idea, but sounds complicated.
My thoughts are that your would probably need to identify 8 - 10 features or charateristics, possibly 5 from each side, and assign a point value to each characteristic.
Starting to sound a bit like the Sheldon system?
Now, if you could scan an image, and send it through to a program to assess your coin, that would be something!
Would not require any prior knowledge or learning (other than the obvious computer glitches and technical know-how associated with those).
Probably something that will happen in the future - for now we do that with our own 'super-computers', or with our friends on forums.
More likely the future holds a 'paid-for' online assessment by an individual / company.
