markn984 Valued Member United States 120 Posts	Posted 01/16/2012 8:53 pm Hi All, I recently inherited a small cache of older coins, which has rekindled my interest in collecting. I'm currently in the process of learning to grade by uses the RedBook, sites like pcgs photograde, and of course this site. It would be very helpful though to get the opinions of more experienced collectors. As such, I've attached a couple of scans of some coins I have. I would appreciate any opinions as to grade. I apologize as I know these aren't terribly rare or exciting coins, but I guess I have to start somewhere. Report this Post to the Staff

bill069 Pillar of the Community United States 608 Posts	Posted 01/16/2012 9:48 pm I'll give it a shot and say the 1943 EF-40 and the 1942 is VF-20. But wait and see what other say. Nice coins and good luck with your collection. Report this Post to the Staff

upstate Pillar of the Community United States 3283 Posts	Posted 01/17/2012 07:46 am My rule of thumb is the thinner she looks the higher the grade. 1943 VF35 (reverse holds it back some) 1942 VF20 Report this Post to the Staff
