What is coin grading?
Grading is a way of determining the physical condition of a coin.
The grade is a sort of "shorthand" for describing the condition of a coin. With experience and the aid of the appropriate books(*1), many people can learn to grade with a moderate degree of accuracy. Few people, however, can ever learn to grade with the precision required to become a professional. The grade of a coin goes a long way in determining the coin's value, and sometimes a seemingly insignificant and easily overlooked flaw can make thousands of dollars of difference.
