<p>[QUOTE="Ken Dorney, post: 3203166, member: 76086"]Well, there are several issues. Most dealers wont take a return if you alter the coin. Reasons why are various, but the main issue is that the coin might come back to them in an unsellable condition if the alterations are severe. But I dont see this coin as being very severe in its state. I think that if you treat it as you mention it should be OK. Its a very attractive coin and its issues are small. If done properly you should have no issues, but monitor it for a few years to see if any problems re-occur. Personally I would keep it, but if you are not confident in your abilities return it. Its a common enough type (though some monograms are rare) and I am sure you will find another, but its entirely up to you.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
