Based on another post I saw that asked for values
of in between grades,
thanks for the idea, Bilbo
It got me thinking about
how you would value a large cent,say 1798 in fine
that was corroded and pitted but all the detail was there?
How would you put a net value on it?

You're welcome!

I think you're going to get very little consensus on this one.

My opinion: assign it the grade based on wear (in this example, F-12), then a description of the problems. For value, knock off a certain percentage (I typically use 10%, 25%, 50%, or 75%) of the value of a problem-free F-12. Determining what percentage to knock off based on how bad the problem is will be an art, not a science.

I don't buy in to the whole "net grade" concept.
