It may take a few minutes and a couple passes but following the images and descriptions soon highlights the value differences.
Uncirculated: A Peace silver dollar in "uncirculated" condition must not show any wear to its surface. First to evidence wear is the mint luster imparted to the surface when coined. Hold your coin by the rims at a slight angle, when tilted back and forth luster rotates across the entire design. Even a short time spent in circulation quickly removes this luster leaving areas dull in appearance.
Follow the above process and examine the reverse. Mint luster should remain unbroken on the eagle's wing feathers. Another area quick to wear is the leading edge of the eagle's beak. Again no dulling of the metal should be present.
Extremely Fine: A slight amount of detail is missing from the tops of the raised portions of the design. If not wide spread a grade of "extremely fine" describes its condition. View Liberty's cheek, and back of her hair, wear forms a smoother texture than the surrounding areas. Overall a pleasing coin, displaying a vibrant appearance when viewed at a distance.

However, should your coin exhibit a slight glow surrounding the lettering this remaining mint luster indicates it is a strong candidate for future collector appeal.
Fine: Your first impression of this 'fine" condition is: yes there is wear but not extensive or unappealing. As you look closely all raised portions of Liberty and the lettering are affected by wear. Quickly noticeable is the flattened areas of Liberty's hair, cheek and also above her eye. Focusing your attention now to the tops of the lettering, motto and date, they have a leveled and smooth quality.
Good: Lack of detail over large areas, defines the "good" grade. Once well-defined strands of hair are now missing, once rounded features of Liberty's cheek are flattened, leaving an overall smooth and worn appearance. 1935 Peace silver dollar value in this condition is supported by the bullion metals market. However you should receive a slight "date" premium when selling your coin, be sure to ask.
