    PFRD 67 Those hairline scratches in the slab would really bother me.

    They are really fine scratches like somebody wiped the slab with a paper towel or something. They really aren't noticible in hand. Between the camera and the lighting they show more.

    Did the coin/slab come directly from the TPG'er or did you buy it from someone?

    It was an eBay purchase. Just got it in the mail today

    Evan, you might try a small amount of peanut butter (Peter Pan works best! LOL) with your little finger and it MAY help get rid of some of those fine scratches. I had a new NGC slab come to me with a sticker on it (one that leaves a real gooey residue) took it off in 3 applications.

    Oh, okay. I was thinking it came that way from the TPG'er.

    physics-fan3.14 You got any more of them.... prooflikes?

    67Cam, but I think I may be getting thrown off by the slab. There appears to be a few tickmarks in the obverse field above Liberty, if I am interpreting the image correctly.

    I'd grade the slab Details, Scratched ;)
