<p>[QUOTE=&quot;gronnh20, post: 2090167, member: 73224&quot;]I got these coins from the mint.&nbsp; They came from the mint to my house.&nbsp; There was no middleman.&nbsp; The postman didn&#039;t open them either.&nbsp; Only I touched them in a hermetically sealed room in full hazmat gear.&nbsp; The coins are safe now from any further damage.&nbsp; For now.</p><p><br /></p><p>The coin on the left does have damage.&nbsp; The curls of hair just to the left of the ear has a strike through.&nbsp; There is no definition in the curls.&nbsp; The device area is just flat.&nbsp; Yes, there is something wrong with his lip.&nbsp; Its a huge scratch running from his upper lip to the back side of the nose.&nbsp; The light hit those scratches and that is what you see.&nbsp; &nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>The coin on the right has some kind of gouge running from the left rim(between United and Liberty) to Washington&#039;s mouth/cheek area.</p><p><br /></p><p>Not all of the coins in the bag were that reflective in the device field.&nbsp; Some of them had that satin look to them.&nbsp; The mint also needs to use some type of anti-spotting agent during the wash cycle.</p><p><br /></p><p>Now, back to the coin on the top.&nbsp; Where in the mint process did this happen?&nbsp; The reverse looks the same.&nbsp; Whatever the case is, it slipped through QA.
