[QUOTE="tmoneyeagles, post: 931165, member: 17557"]You know this 1913 is really one of the hardest coins I've ever dealt with, much harder than that FB Mercury Dime I used to own. :D The only way to get the lettering clear is to have the glare of the lamps directly on the coin, but if I don't have them on the coin, or over the coin, the coin will become very dark, and almost unreadable, and the toning will be nowhere near as good. I'm actually thinking about cracking it out, and maybe sending it off to NGC. I mean the 1913 is graded by ICG, and I am ruining some of the consistency I had going on. :D ;)[/QUOTE]
