<p>[QUOTE=&quot;johnmilton, post: 8481246, member: 101855&quot;]It all depends upon what is on the <i>third side of the coin</i>, the edge. If the reeding is flat or messed up, it&#039;s an indicator that the coin has been mounted. That is a problem because that will get you a &quot;details&quot; grade.</p><p><br /></p><p>Since this is Charlotte Mint coin and it&#039;s really high grade otherwise, which makes it scarce. It&#039;s probably worthwhile to have graded. Just don&#039;t be surprised if the edge is how I described, and you get something other than a straight grade.</p><p><br /></p><p>This problem can be very subtle. Many years ago when I was in college, I had a three dollar gold piece that be mounted. The only &quot;tell tail&quot; was a tiny flat spot at the top of the obverse in the reeding. This type of mounting was used to attach coins to a charm bracelet.</p><p><br /></p><p>I am not saying that&#039;s your problem. I am only saying thats it&#039;s possible.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
