<p>[QUOTE="Lehigh96, post: 2023298, member: 15309"]In the late 90's I bought an AU 1834 Classic Head Half Cent which I decided to send into PCGS for grading. The coin came back in a body bag because apparently I had imparted a large staple scratch across the obverse of the coin while removing it from the 2x2. My only solace is that I don't have photographic evidence of my blunder. I certainly have lost more money on other coins, but that was by far my most egregious mistake.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
