- 2000 April 24, Bruce Hickmott, “Grading and Price Guide on Fugios”, in rec.collecting.coins, Usenet, retrieved 2023-01-05:
- To my knowledge, there are no standards published for Fugios. I use old auction catalogs and many years of coin show experience to grade them. And Grade is a very loose term. Fugios come on bad blanks (sometimes cracked prior to striking) are occasionally weakly struck and in short suffer from all the problems of colonial US coins. This effects value more than grade.
