<p>[QUOTE="Benjamin-46, post: 3683787, member: 106687"]Hi, I just got into coin collecting a few months ago. I have since bought a 1938 Proof dime on Ebay. I was very skeptical that this was actually a proof dime, as less than 9000 were made in 1938. But I figured that I could buy, look at it, and return if needed.</p><p><br /></p><p>The coin arrived today. It has a nice shinny, mirror-like finish. But when I took high resolution pictures of the coin, I saw obvious scratches across Lady Liberty. Is this what they call a "Whizzed coin"?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
