Numeric grades would command much higher prices. Details grades' values are around the above values, though some sellers will sell much higher due to other attributes of the coin like lustre, shine, toning and appeal.
Due to differing grading standards of even very established grading companies, coins with numeric grades of AU and less can have scratches and surface hairlines too. Usually coins with scratches and surface hairlines will be given details grades.
Victoria was named after Queen Victoria of Britain. At the time when Victoria separated from New South Wales, the colonies of Australia were still under British rule. Queen Victoria was the reigning monarch of the time, so it was prudent to honour her by naming a state after her.
