<p>[QUOTE="Boss, post: 497198, member: 15110"]Johnny, </p><p>I did not want to collect graded coins as most of my Lincolns aren't/were not graded. Late realized I liked graded coins and want mine graded for a # of reasons- primarily protection, validation by experts, etc. So I was already sending a 9 coin lot to NCS and wanted to see if the dark spots on the obverse would come off. I would never send a coin like that now in, as those spots seem deep in the planchet and probably would only come off with a grinder:computer::hammer:. Expensive lesson learned. Naturally I wish I wouldn't have cracked it out. I just want it to look as normal as possible now. Hopefully in my lifetime. This coin gives me angst:bigeyes:.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
