<p>[QUOTE=&quot;geekpryde, post: 26723210, member: 36248&quot;]Here are the two coins I want to upgrade:</p><p><br /></p><p>I like this coin mostly, but there are horizontal scratches under the &quot;CENT&quot; on reverse that drive me crazy.&nbsp;&nbsp; I have intentionally chosen a photography angle that shows them as you see the coin head-on in hand.&nbsp; Meaning, they are really not that prominent.&nbsp; But at other angels, and especially when shining a light on them, they appear.&nbsp;&nbsp; Once I saw them, I couldn&#039;t un-see them.&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; So it bothers me more than it should, and so I think eventually I will replace this coin, even though I like the Obverse quite a bit.&nbsp;&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]1706217[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p>With more light on the problem:</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]1706219[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p>Every time I pick it up, its like &quot;oh, its the scratched coin&quot;&nbsp; <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie3" alt=":(" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>Second coin I will upgrade in the future:</p><p><br /></p><p>Nothing wrong with the coin below, its just a bit boring.&nbsp;&nbsp; I think when I am ready to upgrade, I will go MS67 and try for a more interesting toning, or a coin in a special slab, or some other pizazz.</p><p><br /></p><p>I chose this coin back in the day because of how hammered the wheat stalks are.&nbsp;&nbsp; They just pop in my opinion.&nbsp;&nbsp; I wish the Obverse strike was better.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]1706218[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
