<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Spark1951, post: 8168487, member: 90692&quot;]As I have posted before, finding Zincolns <i><b>without </b></i>any defects is the harder task, from circulation or CRH, anyway.</p><p><br /></p><p>But I will concede that well struck, good surfaced coins, minimal contact marks or other defects should be conserved/kept.&nbsp; Some of these types are slabbed, and kept for the rare or scarce condition they have; Mint Sets and the occasional find from circulation.&nbsp; For plating-blistered surfaces, it becomes the Eye of the Beholder.&nbsp; As you said, the degree of blistering is important.</p><p><br /></p><p>So, addressing your 1988-D Zincoln, it looks like an outstanding coin <i><b>except </b></i>for the surface blistering and, in this case, the exception is the X-factor.&nbsp; Some will say to slab, and some won’t.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
