<p>[QUOTE="Numis-addict, post: 1421600, member: 35784"]I screwed up when I was messing with my 7070. I was illogically trying to put an off center Lincoln cent in the Lincoln cent spot. I had a proof in the slot, so I carefully took it out and put it in a 2x2. I was mid-staple, and said to myself, "now, I just have to take caution", the coin slipped out of the nearly stapled 2x2, hit the floor, and rolled under the couch.<img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie3" alt=":(" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /> As soon as that happened, I whimpered, or maybe it was squeaked, "Oh god it was a proof". I moved that sofa, and somehow, even after I had to slide it out, it had no noticeable marks. I then put it in the 2x2. When I realized I wasn't getting that off center penny in there, I put it in a new 2x2 and took out the proof to go in the album, again. All in all, it cost me 2 2x2's and I nearly killed a '66 proof Lincoln. Not a good day.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
