“Details” Grade Question

<p>[QUOTE="Jim Dale, post: 3610213, member: 100459"]Thanks for all of your input. I may have missed something. The grade was UNC-Details, OBV Scratched. Is there anyway I can get a more detailed description as to where the scratch is on the Obverse side? Surely they keep some kind of record as to the location of the scratch, how deep the scratch is, or is there any way they can tell me what caused the scratch. It bothers me that they can make an uncontested "grade" without telling me more than the Obverse was scratched. What the are doing is considered stealing from me without any recourse. Sure I could send it to appeal their decision, but I know what that would do. If I gave it to another TPG and have them grade it. The mintage is 6.256+ million units; a very common coin. The lowest Red Book Grade on the coin is VF-20, valued at $1,825, but with the NGC Details grade, I doubt that I could sell it for that. I believe the best thing to do is hold on to it. I'm going to pick it up today from my credit union. Is there anyway to make a picture without having to buy an expensive camera so I can get as detailed a picture as possible? If I took it out of the slab, would/could it damage the coin? </p><p>More to come and thanks...……………………..jwd[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
