John1 Moderator United States 56855 Posts	Posted 06/08/2011 11:33 am Thanks coop, I know I need better photos but this is about as good as I can get.Can you give me a grade please? I am guessing VF-20 but I am not good at grading. John1 Report this Post to the Staff

Maineman750 Pillar of the Community United States 3592 Posts	Posted 06/08/2011 3:04 pm John1, I'm terrible on grading the memorial cents but I would agree with a 20 or even 25. Report this Post to the Staff
coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 06/08/2011 3:08 pm The sad part is the the gouges will reduce the grade a lot. But it happens. Report this Post to the Staff

John1 Moderator United States 56855 Posts	Posted 06/08/2011 6:09 pm The book value in F is $25.00, how far off base would I be to price mine at $10.00? Thanks guys, John1 Report this Post to the Staff
