jasmithri New Member United States 0 Posts	Posted 05/17/2008 2:33 pm Hello, I am new to coin collecting and am trying to grade a 1922 penny (No D) with a strong reverse. Since the Obverse is very weak on these coins are they graded based on the Reverse? My thought is that none of these could grade above a VG or F based on the obverse since it's very weak on thse coins. The reverse however being so strong seems like it would make more sense. Any helpf is greatly appreciated. Thanks very much. Jason Report this Post to the Staff

But from reading different threads it may be tough to tell if it an actual no D or a weak D if the obverse is tough to read. Add some pictures and have BadThad give it another look, he seems to be the penny expert on the board. Report this Post to the Staff
