I'd rather not send it to PCGS or NGC and pay upwards of $60.00 to get a slab that simply say's "UNC. Details Planchet Flaw". I'd much rather...
Insider was Mr. Owl in the commercial.. :joyful:;)
LOL.. This may be just like the "How many licks does it take to get to the Tootsie Roll center of a Tootsie Pop" question. The world may never...
