<p>[QUOTE="mark_h, post: 335029, member: 3726"]I believe technically they are the same, but to me a scratch is deep and obvious. Hairlines are very thin lines across the surface of the coin and may not be noticeable with the naked eye. Actually to me I think pictures make the hairlines more obvious - not always, but I think true pictures will show them. When looking at a coin through a glass you may have to look at various angles to make them out.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
