<p>[QUOTE="Jupiter88, post: 2218256, member: 75512"]Thank you for your input! I'm able to see the line on the obverse from Lincoln's jacket up to the RT in Liberty & the scratch lines in front of the nose (but I think I read that those can show up sometimes on non proofs as well?). I've located a tiny cluster of sorts of a darker shade in the area between the M in unum and the top of the wheat stalk, but it's hard to see and to be able to confirm if it's crecsent shape? I've gone through 4 loupes trying to find a higher magnifying one that doesn't warp my view <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>I'm uploading a couple enlarged pics . You may be able to see the small darker area I'm referring to? Just curious what you think about the potential grade? When looking through my loup it has a bright gold appearance.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]434233[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]434234[/ATTACH] .[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
