Certified coins: All of our certified coin photos are considered stock photos unless otherwise noted. Though we do our best to update photos with current inventory, stock photos are necessary due to inventory turnover and having multiples of the same item in stock. We welcome inquiries to see if the exact coin pictured is in stock. In many cases, if it is not, we will post new photos of a current coin in inventory upon request. If you want to purchase the exact coin pictured, please request it in the order comments during checkout.

Uncertified coins: Photos of uncertified single coins are of the actual coin being sold. Roll pictures are stock photo examples.

Coin Grading

• (P-1) Poor - Barely identifiable and possibly damaged; must have a date and mintmark if used; otherwise, pretty thrashed.
• (FR-2) Fair - Worn almost smooth but lacking the damage a coin graded Poor usually has. Enough detail must remain to identify the coin.
• (G-4) Good - Heavily worn such that inscriptions merge into the rims in places; major features are mostly obliterated.
• (VG-8) Very Good- Very worn, but all major design elements are evident, albeit faint. Little if any central detail remains.
• (F-12) Fine - Very worn, but wear is even, and overall design elements stand out boldly. Almost fully-separated rims from the field.
• (VF-20) Very Fine - Moderately worn, with some finer details persisting. All letters of LIBERTY or the motto are readable. The rims on both sides of the coin are full and separated from the field.
• (EF-40) Extremely Fine - Lightly worn; all devices are clear, and significant devices are bold. The finer details are bold and clear but may show some evidence of light wear.

• (AU-50) About Uncirculated - Slight traces of wear on high points of the coin's design; may have contact marks, and eye appeal should be acceptable.
• (AU-58) Very Choice About Uncirculated - Slightest hints of wear marks, no significant contact marks, almost full mint luster, and positive eye appeal.
• (MS-60) Mint State Basal - Strictly uncirculated; no evidence of wear on the highest points of the coin but an ugly coin with subdued luster,  noticeable contact marks, hairlines, etc.
• (MS-63) Mint State Acceptable - Uncirculated, but with contact marks and nicks, slightly impaired luster, fundamentally appealing appearance. The strike is average to weak.
• (MS-65) Mint State Choice - Uncirculated with strong mint luster, very few contact marks, and excellent eye appeal. The strike is above average.
• (MS-68) Mint State Premium Quality - Uncirculated with perfect luster, no visible contact marks to the naked eye, exceptional eye appeal. The strike is sharp and attractive.
• (MS-69) Mint State Almost Perfect - Uncirculated with perfect luster, sharp and attractive strike, and very exceptional eye appeal. A perfect coin except for tiny flaws (only visible under 8x magnification) in planchet, strike, or contact marks.

• (MS-70) Mint State Perfect - The perfect coin. There are no microscopic flaws visible under 8x magnification; the strike is sharp, and the coin is perfectly centered on a perfect planchet. Bright and complete, it has the original luster and outstanding eye appeal that is rarely seen on a coin.
