<p>[QUOTE="Publius2, post: 7837722, member: 105571"]Here's another example where the spot crossing the cap, LIBERTY and into the curls did not affect the grading. This 1835 half cent is from my type set. NGC AU-58. But it's the only spot on the coin and doesn't detract much at all from the eye appeal. If there were multiple spots it is likely that the graders would have knocked it down to AU-55 or lower. </p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]1347736[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
