<p>[QUOTE="brguillette, post: 1769480, member: 56752"]Hi, every one, I am new to this great forum. I was hopping to get some help one a silver eagle I bought back in 2006. It is a NGC certified 2006 first strike gem UNC, actually my first coin I had ever bought, so I consider my self a new B to collecting coins. Well the other day I was looking through my part stack of eagles when I noticed something different about this 2006 first strike. Looking at the sun on the obverse side I saw a large blob on it sticking out, which no other eagle I have has. Then on the reverse near the 1 oz there is a big, what looks like, a flake missing on the back. Is this an error? Help would be a big help to a noon like me. The coin is sealed never touched since new, in the slab of course. Thanks all. Added note the reverse sort of looks like a stain in the pic but is actually indented like a thin layer had chipped off or there was maybe something in between the die and blank during the process? Seems strange NGC would place a gem label on a coin like this, I really wonder if they really even looked at it. Like someone there just slapped a label on it without even looking at it. Thanks once more.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
