How to Grade a Ohio State Quarter

Accurate grading is the single most important factor in determining a coin's value. A difference of just a few grade points can mean 10ร— or more in value. Examine the highest points of the design first โ€” these are where wear appears earliest. For the finest grades, luster, strike quality, and surface preservation all matter. Professional grading by PCGS or NGC adds certainty and typically increases resale value. Read our complete grading guide โ†’
