<p>[QUOTE="C Jay, post: 384738, member: 13184"]I'm thinking that these spots were caused by slight inperfections on the hubs. I got 4 from the mint. 2 have a speck above the A in AMERICA and 2 have a spot on th N in ONE. The spot on the N in my MS-69 is less pronounced and I haven't detected any on the wing like the one I have pictured. This leads me to believe that the hubs degraded as more coins were being minted. It also leads me to believe that we can catolog coins from each of the 15 hubs that the mint claims were used.</p><p>As far as grading goes, two services have had their MS-70 selling on Ebay. PGCS has been selling for "totally outrageous" while NGC has been going for "just plain ridiculous". I think maybe PGCS is holding to a higher standard than NGC, since they are also grading very few MS-70's while NGC in running about 50%. As far a selling on ebay goes, I think I can present a decent photo of the coin, and I'll mention the spots. All I care about is getting back the grading and coin cost, the rest is gravy, or more eagles.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
