<p>[QUOTE="mark_h, post: 453537, member: 3726"]Never noticed the lite scratches until the pictures. Looks like it rubbed against something because those spots on the scroll and the wing tip are the only spots. You can look directly at it(with 16x glass) and see them. Would have bought it anyway since I like the overall strike and color of the coin.</p><p><br /></p><p>The funny thing is that they have not had any interesting shield nickels until today - in almost a year. Found these two today - like the cracks, nothing special. The one with r2 in the title has a very slight doubling of the annulet you can see it when you tilt it a little bit - not really worth noting. It also looks like it is either a grease filled die or a strike thru. Not sure at all.</p><p><br /></p><p>Once again all comments are always welcome.</p><p><br /></p><p><a href="http://s209.photobucket.com/albums/bb15/coinmarks/?action=view&current=1825-O-B2.jpg" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://s209.photobucket.com/albums/bb15/coinmarks/?action=view&current=1825-O-B2.jpg" rel="nofollow"><img src="http://i209.photobucket.com/albums/bb15/coinmarks/th_1825-O-B2.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></a><a href="http://s209.photobucket.com/albums/bb15/coinmarks/?action=view&current=1825-R-B2.jpg" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://s209.photobucket.com/albums/bb15/coinmarks/?action=view&current=1825-R-B2.jpg" rel="nofollow"><img src="http://i209.photobucket.com/albums/bb15/coinmarks/th_1825-R-B2.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></a></p><p><a href="http://s209.photobucket.com/albums/bb15/coinmarks/?action=view&current=1866-O1.jpg" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://s209.photobucket.com/albums/bb15/coinmarks/?action=view&current=1866-O1.jpg" rel="nofollow"><img src="http://i209.photobucket.com/albums/bb15/coinmarks/th_1866-O1.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></a><a href="http://s209.photobucket.com/albums/bb15/coinmarks/?action=view&current=1866-R1.jpg" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://s209.photobucket.com/albums/bb15/coinmarks/?action=view&current=1866-R1.jpg" rel="nofollow"><img src="http://i209.photobucket.com/albums/bb15/coinmarks/th_1866-R1.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></a></p><p><a href="http://s209.photobucket.com/albums/bb15/coinmarks/?action=view&current=1866-O2.jpg" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://s209.photobucket.com/albums/bb15/coinmarks/?action=view&current=1866-O2.jpg" rel="nofollow"><img src="http://i209.photobucket.com/albums/bb15/coinmarks/th_1866-O2.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></a><a href="http://s209.photobucket.com/albums/bb15/coinmarks/?action=view&current=1866-R2.jpg" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://s209.photobucket.com/albums/bb15/coinmarks/?action=view&current=1866-R2.jpg" rel="nofollow"><img src="http://i209.photobucket.com/albums/bb15/coinmarks/th_1866-R2.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></a>[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
