<p>[QUOTE=&quot;chrismessier, post: 224047, member: 8820&quot;]What can you expect in terms of grading from a pcgs or ngc if you have a coin with a fingerprint on them? ?&nbsp; &nbsp; I bought a washington smoothie edge error from someone on ebay and the coin is in excellent shape except for a visible fingerprint on the obverse which probably covers about 1/4 of the obverse.&nbsp;&nbsp; The coin is definitely UNC, but the bozo handled it with his fingers and therefore left a print on the coin.&nbsp;&nbsp; Without the fingerprint I would expect the coin to grade a 66, but with the print I have no idea since I have only sent about 20 coins to grading services and never any with fingerprints.&nbsp; Please post a reply only if you really know what I could expect in terms of a downgrade if there even would be a downgrade.&nbsp; Thanks[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
