T he value ranges provided in the catalog are estimates for conserva-tively graded, essentially problem-free coins. Noteworthy defects will decrease the value of a coin (sometimes significantly), whereas merits will have the opposite effect. A dash (— ) indicates a value which is especially difficult to determine, not necessarily one which is high. It should not be assumed that coins with the same value range are equal in value, for they may represent different ends of the spectrum.
