    How do you open a sealed case without using a hammer? 1524909_10152081941022349_1549459664_n.jpg

    lol nahh I didn't do that..... i wanted to see if it was worth trying to get graded and how bad the scratch was

    My guess is that that scratch will cost at least ten points.

    The mint boxes are very easily opened with a fingernail to the side.

    Don't waste your money on grading fees, it may come back proof details with a scratch like that.

    The hope of me grading is to sale for the purpose of completing my penny collection

    My point is that you will spend more on grading fees than the coin is worth, you will do much better selling the coin raw.

    It may be a strikethrough instead of a scratch.
