What does VF30 mean on a 1923-D Peace dollar?

A 1923-D Peace dollar graded VF30 is that coin in one particular state of preservation — the date and the mint mark are already fixed, and VF30 is what a grader called the surface that survived. What that looks like on this coin is below. The nearest grade of this date this site does have a researched figure for is Very Fine (VF-20), at $52 to $84, from sales and public data.

What VF30 means

A 1923-D Peace dollar in Very Fine (VF-30) sits at the top of Very Fine: the eagle’s individual wing feathers and the leaves of the olive branch beneath its talons are largely present, the hair above Liberty’s eye and the high points of the rays of her crown have lost their shape over a smaller area than at twenty, and only the highest points are worn. It is the last grade where the wear is obvious at arm’s length.

A slab, a dealer’s list or a price guide may write this grade VF-30. They are the same grade and the same 1923-D Peace dollar.

Where this grade sits
