wheatguy Pillar of the Community United States 1534 Posts	Posted 11/07/2010 10:37 am Shield rivets do matter when grading, you just have to take into consideration that they are usually weakly struck. Edited by wheatguy 11/07/2010 10:38 am Report this Post to the Staff
Namachieli Pillar of the Community United States 2120 Posts	Posted 11/07/2010 12:09 pm I would say you should discount for weak rivets, but strong rivets should hold a little premium. Report this Post to the Staff

thecoinczar Valued Member United States 457 Posts	Posted 11/10/2010 12:31 am Although weak strikes on the SLQs are very common, Stronger rivets mean a better strike and the price can go through the roof! Report this Post to the Staff
