<p>[QUOTE=&quot;schatzy, post: 800813, member: 17401&quot;]I feel that 1983-P is VERY TOUGH to find nice, and in all seriousness, could be as rare as 1936-D in upper grades (MS-65 and up). You will simply never, ever find a sharply struck 1983-P, and that means they will always have those trivial little chicken-scratch marks all over the portrait. I have yet to ever see one that didn&#039;t have them to at least some extent.</p><p><br /></p><p>The little marks are not post-mint handling marks, but were already there when the coin was struck. And since these coins were never fully struck, the danged marks <i>stayed there</i>.</p><p><br /></p><p>My 1983-P Sent to NGC by me!!</p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://i236.photobucket.com/albums/ff301/schatzyjrebay/1983-P-Close-119Kcopy.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
