 | | Personally, I specialize in VF coins because they show most of the detail of the coin and are a fraction of the cost of higher grade coins. |
 | | For example, a coin might have XF wear, but have been scratched, corroded, cleaned, etc. Often, such a coin will be given a "net" grade, say VF reflecting the undesirable issues. |
 | | This is meant to reflect that while the coin may technically grade XF, the market value should be somewhere close to that of an average VF coin. |
