Djrev757 Valued Member United States 131 Posts	Posted 12/28/2023 5:50 pm Hello would I be right in assuming these 2 are the same grade? I'm not well rounded in grading yet but from what I can read toning is only good to a collector who likes toned coins but it doesn't effect the grade? Would these 2 essentially be both graded XF or just the shinier one even tho in my eyes they look identical in ware. Both having scratches on the cheek. Report this Post to the Staff

jacrispies Pillar of the Community United States 3848 Posts	Posted 12/28/2023 5:56 pm I would say they are in the same grade ballpark. Between AU-55 and AU-58, leaning toward the latter.

Errers and Varietys Bedrock of the Community United States 75147 Posts	Posted 12/28/2023 11:31 pm Both are AU. Errers and Varietys. Report this Post to the Staff
sel_69l Bedrock of the Community Australia 21788 Posts	Posted 12/29/2023 12:02 am Both are near enough to the same AU grade, but I prefer the appearance of the first of these two coins. Toning blemishes hold the eye appeal of the second coin back a bit. Report this Post to the Staff
