Doug: Thank you, I have been searching for one for (literally) years. I had always hoped to find one in that old fashioned way-- a cherrypick...
yup, post mint damage. Probably coin counter.
Welcome to the forum, and I can't decide between cleverly placed dirt or RPM south.
Clembo: Thank you for the kind words.
jello: Sorry, but that is NOT a cud, looks like a lamination. But, definitely, not a cud.
I saw one this weekend at a coin show. I don't remember the asking price. but, what is everyone's guess as to the current value?
Doug: I agree with you-- to a point. Seeing the stupid prices that modern coins go for in high MS grades, say an MS69 2005Lincoln cent,...
Doug: Sounds like you have some great ones there. Have you collected the Wayte Raymond momographs written by, among others, Walter Breen?...
good info, but, wow! That is as tough as detecting some fake coins.
cw: Considering that the reference is from 2002, what do you consider the current value to be? and: Thanks, coinman.
When it is on eBay!
kd: That is junk, as acanthite said.
welcome, and a good posting, especially for your first! Stay around.
A nice VG should become available. The strange part of this date is the it starts very high, and the increases for grades is not that great....
Thank you CWTokenman!

Any coin in Eduard's collections! ;) :)
as we all do. Good luck

post mint damage, as in: a scratch.
