[QUOTE="HandsomeToad, post: 376745, member: 12965"]My 1831 DBH is that way. You can't see the two scratches in hand but take a pic of it and it stands out like a sore thumb. Unfortunately, the scratches are still there and count against the grade. :( But the most important thing isn't the scratches, it's do you like the coin? :) Do you have any other ones or is this your first one? :) I have many problem coins and I like them, but I would like MS versions more. :D I go for what I can afford and lower grade coins are within my price range and I enjoy them. I adore my 1795 Capped Half-Cent and you can barely make out the date and if it weren't for the reverse being so visible, I probably wouldn't be able to date it without question. Simply put, if you can afford filet mignon, eat it but if you're on a PBJ budget, a good hamburger tastes great! :D Ribbit :)[/QUOTE]
