<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Strik9, post: 8235125, member: 112403&quot;]I’m generally new to the forum and do not know of a way to respond to all (of that is even possible) aside from doing so individually. Nonetheless, I would like to thank everyone for their comments as all of you truly helped me reach a definitive conclusion. I had purchased the coin through an online coin auction as more or less, a fluke. Whenever I purchase coins online, I usually make sure to stick to graded and of course, slabbed coins from either PCGS or NGC. I have, however, discovered many “questionable” coins over the last few years (that were nearing an auction’s ending) which I decided to take a VERY small gamble on (no pun intended). As was the case with this one (which I had unknowingly won for $3.95). When it arrived, at first glance, it looked exceptional to me; however, under magnification, I instantly noticed what I believed were cleaning/buffing lines &amp; scratches, and hence — tossed it aside. That was a year ago. I stumbled across it the other day and decided to take a closer look at it with the idea of posting it here on the site. I am so glad that I did! Thank you all for your comments![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
