Here are 2 coins with contact marks on them. Just about every blemish on each of these coins would be called a contact mark - with 1 exception each. There is a light scratch in front of the chin on the Peace, and very light abrasion on the cheek of the Morgan.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH]191834.vB[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH]191835.vB[/ATTACH]</p><p> </p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>One thing about hairlines, sometimes they are so fine you can't even see them with the naked eye.
