<p>[QUOTE="klockz, post: 1091718, member: 28797"]Hey guys,</p><p>Recently bought a bag of wheats online and got this coin out of the lot. I don't know much about this coin but based on pictures it appears to be a "mirror proof". The back is pretty beat up with what appears to be a burn mark. I'm new to the whole grading coins thing and I really have no experience with grading proofs. Can anyone help me out here? How much would the "burn" mark affect the overall grade of this coin? Any other thoughts in general? It is a really cool looking coin and I'm happy to have received it with my others. I'm not sure if I'm linking these pics right so you may have to click on them, sorry. Thanks in advance!!</p><p><br /></p><p> <a href="http://img277.imagevenue.com/img.php?image=22821_005_122_562lo.JPG" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://img277.imagevenue.com/img.php?image=22821_005_122_562lo.JPG" rel="nofollow">[img=http://img277.imagevenue.com/loc562/th_22821_005_122_562lo.JPG]</a> <a href="http://img166.imagevenue.com/img.php?image=22844_006_122_366lo.JPG" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://img166.imagevenue.com/img.php?image=22844_006_122_366lo.JPG" rel="nofollow">[img=http://img166.imagevenue.com/loc366/th_22844_006_122_366lo.JPG]</a>[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
