Ancient Greek & Roman Coins


Grading and Describing Ancient Coins

The Grading page was once the most popular part of my site. It was later moved to my ACM site but is restored here for this disk. In an attempt to make it even better I kept adding photos until the total load time was over 4 minutes with a 28.8 modem. I fear too many people would give up before the page loaded. This is not a problem with the CD version but the separation is maintained. Please select from the three separate sections below. HINT: The best parts of this page are the Conditions of Manufacture and Conditions of Preservation sections so PLEASE don't just visit the Standard Grading section and think you have seen what this page has to offer.

Standard Grading
