<p>[QUOTE=&quot;johnmilton, post: 4649951, member: 101855&quot;]Adjustment marks might not effect the grade, BUT they can effect the market price and the ease of selling the piece. Adjustment marks that make the coin ugly make the coin much harder to sell and lowers the price you will get. </p><p><br /></p><p>The most extreme example I have seen was a 1795 Flowing Hair Half Dollar that had extensive adjustment marks on the obverse. The coin was really ugly, but somehow NGC saw a Mint State coin under all of those marks. The dealer had a 5-figure price the coin just same. It sat in his inventory for months before it disappeared. My guess it sold for a big discount to one of those guys who buys registry points and doesn’t care that much about the coin.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
