<p>[QUOTE=&quot;cpm9ball, post: 1119188, member: 24633&quot;]It isn&#039;t all luck. Using a 10x loupe, hold the coin under a good light (halogen if you have one), and slowly tilt it back and forth in all directions looking for the small nicks &amp; ticks that will shine when the light hits them at a certain angle. Even the smallest pinpoint-sized mark can keep a coin from getting a 70 (if the grader spots it). Don&#039;t forget to check the rims, too. Sometimes, small marks on the rim will be given a &quot;pass&quot;, but if they are visible enough, maybe not.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Chris[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
