<p>[QUOTE="1865King, post: 5366665, member: 103207"]This was a tuff one I spent a long time trying to figure this one out. It was so well done you can't see any signs of the repair on the reverse. I purchased this coin Last year at an auction. I got it for around $2,000.00. I grade it as a VF25. In the same auction there was another 1795 bust dollar B-14 graded as straight graded VF20. This coin had adjustment marks that were very pronounced. That coin went for $6,300.00. Which coin would you want. A coin the someone took a file to it before striking or the one I have that was skillfully repaired. Just to let you know I absolutely hate adjustment marks on coins. To me adjustment marks are mint made damage. I do not consider them acceptable and would never buy a coin with adjustment marks. To me they are no different than scratches on a coin.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
