Shatsi, your scratch isn't nearly as bad as Margaret's or it may be just that hers is magnified alot and yours no so much. I wonder why the mint didnt check the coins before shipping. Would you give a valued customer a rare coin with a scratch?

Shasti,

Ouch! That one is bad. Mine is not very noticable until you start looking. Thats such a shame because I think both Franklin coin designs are really impressive. Wish there was a way for them to replace it for you. I wish I had bought more then one of each.

Do you think you might send it back and then try to buy another from a dealer or ebay? You'd think quality control at the mint would be better then that.

Thanks for posting the pic, I was really curious.

coolg, Margarets is a die crack not a scratch.

Margaret, I place 2 orders with the mint, for a total of 3 of each commems in UNC. But one order got lost and I'm waiting for them to replace it for me. I called the mint about exchanging this one but they said due to the demand they can't gurantee that they can replace it. By the time mine arrives there, if they don't have any in stock they'll credit me. So I thought I hang onto what I have.

I'm not sure exactly when the coins were ordered, Dad was the one who sent the order in but I think it was shortly after they went on sale. Dad's gonna call again on Monday and see if he can find anything else out. *fingers crossed*
