<p>[QUOTE="SCNuss, post: 81257, member: 3609"]I received my UNC dollar on 10/21, and find that the surface finish is not uniform. The obverse has a shiny spot, about 3/16" diameter, in the center, and a "swirl" through the motto. Half of the field of the reverse is more reflective from the 10 o'clock to the 5 o'clock position. The strike appears to be excellent, and the detail is crisp and clear, IMHO. It appears the planchet was not properly prepared, also IMHO. I will keep it, as is, because I fear I would not get a replacement from the Mint.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
