<p>[QUOTE="bama guy, post: 384678, member: 6154"]Jay, I have an NGC 70 08/07 reverse silver eagle thing, that I purchased early on. It also has those shinny spots that you mention. One on the rim is very noticeable even without any magnification. A number of these sports are visible if you tilt this coin and examine it under minimum magnification. I too ponder this question of should this coin be a 70. Seems it comes down to when these shinny spots appeared. If they were done during the minting process then that is fine. This just does not seem right to me either but as they say live and learn.</p><p><br /></p><p>I also examine a couple of raw 2008 silver eagle and found they have these shinny spots to. What I think I have been able to find out is that it was caused by the dies but I really do not know. I have a 2006 w Silver eagle also in a NGC 70. It is truly a flawless coin. The difference between these two coins it like the difference between night and day. </p><p><br /></p><p>I also thought of sending my coin back to NGC for a regrade but not sure if it is worth the time , trouble and money. If you wish to sell it then list it on ebay. You might want to mention that you are not a professional grader and if they have a problem with the grade then take it up the the grader since grade is subjective.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
