D0ubl3Eagle Pillar of the Community United States 5854 Posts	Posted 07/03/2012 11:29 pm N-9 refers to a specific die variety. Newcomb numbers are used to attribute large cents that were minted between 1816 and 1839. Report this Post to the Staff
Coinstar Pillar of the Community United States 1510 Posts	Posted 07/03/2012 11:37 pm Dino: grades go from 0-70 Question: What is the Sheldon Scale of Coin Grading? Answer: The Sheldon Scale is a 70-point scale for grading coins, developed by Dr. William Sheldon in 1949. A slightly modified form of the Sheldon Scale has become the de facto standard for grading U.S. coins today, and is used by the major third party grading services when assigning a grade to a coin.

OldSkoolMadSkilz Pillar of the Community United States 2077 Posts	Posted 07/04/2012 11:20 am I prefer that my coronets and braided hair be fine or better. At lower grades, they sometimes get a weird appearance, especially braided hair. I actually think that they look better with all the details gone than at the mid low grades.
