These are some of the better qaulity Walking Libertys that I've seen in person, but what do you guys think they would grade? Are these pictures sufficient? Is there a standard for coin presentation around here? Report this Post to the Staff

Darth Anarchus Pillar of the Community United States 1388 Posts	Posted 10/14/2011 1:45 pm Looks to be Vf-30, and VF-35... As far as pics go, you did pretty good considering you got them both in the same shot. I always take a picture of a single coin at a time, that way I can focus on the details a little better. But to each his own... And last of all, to the community! Report this Post to the Staff
calikevin New Member United States 36 Posts	Posted 10/14/2011 4:15 pm Thanks, I noticed the one on the right got a little flash reflection on it, but it doesant really take away from the detail on the coin. I'll take seperate pics from now on, and thanks for the grades and the welcome! Report this Post to the Staff

aladinslamp Pillar of the Community United States 3076 Posts	Posted 10/15/2011 01:30 am the 1935-s is much more worn, say VG20/25..the wear is very obvious on the chest its lacking of any detail while the 42 at least has some separation...the side by side comparison is a great way to see the 2 coins and there difference...the 42 is "MUCH BETTER". and I mean not by 5 points..... I suspect the 35 has been dipped....its very shiney not lustry which many could think its a better grade...By wear along you can clearly see,,,the 42-D is the better coin in fine condition the 35 is a VG coin..not VF..let not the shine be your guide, the devils in the DETAILS...

calikevin New Member United States 36 Posts	Posted 10/15/2011 03:23 am To me the 35 (On the right) appears to have better detail, mainly in the chest area... Maybe most of it is distorted by the flash, I'll take a better picture of the '35 sometime tomorrow. Report this Post to the Staff
