Both of them are in the range of AU but I'm not enough confident to split the range from 50 to 58. Here's a picture of this 1913. Thanks Report this Post to the Staff

Montgomery Valued Member Canada 429 Posts	Posted 05/15/2016 8:47 pm Curiously, this one have a luster more flat compare to the 1936 wich is more shiny. What make the difference between a AU-50 to 53 to 55 to 58. There is not to much wear in AU grades added to some coins who have weak strike. What should I look to split them with more precision? Thanks Report this Post to the Staff
GregJG Valued Member Canada 257 Posts	Posted 05/15/2016 8:59 pm AU-58 to my eye Theres a certain threshhold to get AU (must have lustre, very little wear on high points) Then its just the amount of wear/dings/nicks that determine 50/53/55/58 Your coin has the SLIGHTEST amount of wear possible, almost invisible. That alone gets it to 58 for me. Nicks/dings are minimal too Edited by GregJG 05/15/2016 8:59 pm Report this Post to the Staff
Paulsz Pillar of the Community Canada 2187 Posts	Posted 05/15/2016 10:30 pm I second GregJG's comment. Your coin has the slightest of wear on it. A bit on the tip of the mustache, a tiny bit on the crown band and the beads running up the crown. On your 1936, it might have more shine but you can clearly see the wear on the crown band and on the beads running up the crown Report this Post to the Staff
RidgeWest New Member Canada 34 Posts	Posted 05/15/2016 11:40 pm From the AU-58 posters, the comments regarding wear seem pretty straight forward. However, I am wondering how you considered the lustre on the coin? I would normally expect more lustre from an AU-58 (particularly a small coin like a ten cent piece). Report this Post to the Staff
