<p>[QUOTE=&quot;BooksB4Coins, post: 2068265, member: 36230&quot;]While I do not know who said this, or in what context it was put to you, but generally speaking, until here long enough to learn who knows what they&#039;re talking about and who just thinks they do, such self fluffery should be taken with a grain of salt.</p><p><br /></p><p>As for the coin itself, the damage displayed, unfortunately, goes well beyond simple (or possibly forgivable) &quot;scratches&quot;. It is severely damaged, and this will have a major impact on both value and collector interest, regardless of the date/mint. The unfortunate fact is that many to most collectors will avoid such material, even if offered for next to nothing, if it were to go into their collections, and in times past may have avoided altogether. However, with the eBay monster, such coins can fairly easily be placed as long as the price is &quot;right&quot;, so while I cannot comfortably estimate (what I believe to be) a fair collector-to-collector value[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
