<p>[QUOTE=&quot;1971, post: 6724934, member: 119097&quot;]First time posting to a coin forum.&nbsp; I have been collecting coins for several decades now and noticed some of my older mint proof coins were beginning to oxidize (sorry I don&#039;t know proper coin lingo) and have recently decided to send them off to get graded before they get worse.&nbsp; While going though my 1972-S proof set I noticed an oddity on the SBA and originally thought it was some type of filament within the casing. Seeing how I planned on sending this in for grading I decided to take it out of the casing and believe this coin has a crack.&nbsp; Trying to get community thoughts on this and if this is something unique or could take away from the coin itself.&nbsp; The crack is small irregular design which looks to be on SBA&#039;s collar and coin facing.&nbsp; I have attached pictures and these are the best I can take.&nbsp; Your advice is greatly appreciated.</p><p>[ATTACH=full]1271084[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1271085[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1271086[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1271087[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1271088[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
