<p>[QUOTE=&quot;GDJMSP, post: 3689596, member: 112&quot;]Some folks might already know this, but for those who don&#039;t, when you&#039;re trying to view coins posted as thumbnails there&#039;s a little trick you can use to see the images full size. Click on the thumbnail, that opens the image on your screen. Then right click on that image and select Open Image In New Tab, then move on the subsequent images and do the same thing.</p><p><br /></p><p>Then when you click on those tabs to look at each image there&#039;s usually a plus sign that will appear when you hold your cursor over the image, when there is, left click. That opens the image to its full size. Anyway, it&#039;s a simple little trick that works quite well when you want to get a closer look.</p><p><br /></p><p>With this coin when you do that you can see that there&#039;s quite a bit of pitting around the lower bust and scattered about. In any case the pitting is the result of corrosion, and whether it happened to the planchet or the coin after it was struck doesn&#039;t really matter in my eyes, all that matters is that it&#039;s there, and yes it should affect the grade you assign. </p><p><br /></p><p>And yeah, you can see some of the pitting in the smaller images when you click on the thumbnail, but viewing the image full size allows you to get a much better idea of the coin&#039;s condition. It&#039;s not quite microscopic like Insider is talking about, but it definitely helps.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
