<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Louie_Two_Bits, post: 823833, member: 17748&quot;]I am going to submit this 1970 S Lincoln cent to NGC for grading. However, it has a hazy stripe running through the obverse and on the high-points as well. Is this haze PVC damage???</p><p><br /></p><p>Then there are tiny scratches/contact marks (two being deep scratches identifiable with the naked eye, the others you cannot see with the naked eye) that are on the obverse as well, along with a few tiny black dots. </p><p><br /></p><p>The reverse is problem free, it is the obverse that worries me. If the haze is indeed PVC, I know NGC won&#039;t grade/encapsulate it. This coin appears UNC, so I was hoping it would still receive an MS grade, IF that haze is not PVC damage. I intend on using this as a tool to be able to identify small dates, but since it is my first/only small date, I wanted to slab it.</p><p><br /></p><p>This coin looks much better in hand, there is lots of luster present. But the pictures REALLY highlight it&#039;s flaws.</p><p><br /></p><p>Can someone with grading experience give me some advice on how I should proceed with this coin? And offer any guesstimates as to how this would grade for an NGC submission?</p><p><br /></p><p>Thanks in advance!</p><p>-LTB[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
