[QUOTE="bg35765, post: 1774119, member: 42710"]My reverse proof arrived yesterday. (I am in Indiana, so it is a short drive from PBGS.) I saw what appeared to be a scratch to the left of the 2 in 2013. I pried open the air tite and got a Q tip and touched it and "the scratch" moved. It turned out to be a little piece of plastic. It looks perfect to me now! The coin in general looks better in hand than in pictures. You have to be able to move it a little bit for the mirrored areas to catch the light at different angles. It is in my safe deposit box now, but I'm actually considering joining NGC and sending it in. I have always been an OGP guy, but I saw some pictures of a buffalo proof where a pawn shop owner took a chunk out of it to test if it is solid gold. I don't ever want my coin to meet that fate. Then again the thought of putting it in the mail scares me too.[/QUOTE]
