I have one coin with AU58 and one with MS62. They are different coins. Does that mean AU58 has lower market value than MS62 coin even they are different coins? They are all graded by PCGS.Thank You for the answers!

not necessarily, depending on the date, a coin in F-12 can be worth more than a coin of a different date in MS-67.

take the 1909-S Lincoln Cent and the 1918 Lincoln Cent for example:

the 1909-S Lincoln Cent is worth $125 in F-12

and the 1918 Lincoln Cent is worth $35 in MS-63

it all boils down to which date or which variety it is. in some cases, the later date in the higher grade is worth more.

another example is the 1938 and the 1937 Lincoln Cent:

the 1938 Lincoln Cent in MS-63 is worth $9

and the 1937 Lincoln Cent in MS-63 is worth $5

BUT, if you look at the mintage figures, there were only 156,862,000 pieces struck for the 1938 Lincoln Cent
while the 1937 Lincoln Cent had 309,170,000.

so, basically, the rarer the date, the rarer the coin. grades affect the outcome of the coins value greatly(and which can put the higher grade of the less rare coin more sought after than the rarer coin in the lower grade) but dates are primarily what affects value.

116637 (1934) $1 Y-345 CHINA, REPUBLIC OF MS62
116554 (1920) $1 Y-329.6 CHINA, REPUBLIC OF AU58

Can you tell which one worth more?

I also got two coins graded Questionable Authenticity, does this mean they are 100% fake for sure since PCGS is reputable.

From what I can find it looks like these are both @ $50.00 each in stated values. WOLF

Yes. Legally, PCGS cannot say outright that they are fake, so they use Questionable Authenticity on all fake coins.

I remember seeing some of your old threads, and I think your coins do have more value than $50, although to be honest I have no clue. Hopefully one of the darkside members will chime in soon.
