<p>[QUOTE="Millard, post: 4873385, member: 90317"]I was watching an auction for a 1778 Morgan CC and thought the bidding seems low. Photos didn't show the coin quite clearly. Not having a CC Morgan I thought this was my chance to add on to my modest collection and I like that it was a 1778. I was so happy when I won!. Couldn't wait to have it in hand. When it arrived I thought "this is a nice coin". Then I turned it over <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie3" alt=":(" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />. Just below the mint mark was the tell tale indication of the beginning contact of a small drill bit. I went back to the original posting but the reverse photos didn't clearly show that area enough to see the damage. Hmmmm. I still have it. I really like the coin, but lesson learned. Still can't figure out what others saw that I could not. I could have sent it back I guess, but .....no. I'm gonna keep it.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
