Hello,
I am a newbe at this. I am looking for errors in a collection of modern US coins, passed down in family. Are Die gouges, dots, scratches, and Trail Dies considered errors? Do they add enough value to coins to have them graded? Thanks

Die cracks or scratches scratches add less value while die cracks add more

to CCF. All depends on severity. Also, those are not errors but are varieties. Post a few photos in the proper sections and we will help. I have a large collection/hoard of trail dies.
