[QUOTE="Leadfoot, post: 1105474, member: 2972"]I don't think you're crazy. To wit, I don't mind old scratches, but I draw the line at bright, shiny and fresh ones. We all have to decide for ourselves what we consider "OK" and "NOT OK" -- and what's right for me isn't necessarily right for you. By way of example: [img]http://www.pbase.com/miker/image/83231728/original.jpg[/img] One person may look at this coin and say, "What an ugly scratch in the obverse field -- I'll never own a coin like this." Another may look at this coin and say, "Wow, a circulated and original looking 1874 trade dollar -- what a rare and cool coin & the small old scratch doesn't bother me at all." And you know what? They're BOTH right. :)[/QUOTE]
