Quote: Can you find the mint mark? Yes I can, it's definitely a CC (I'm not joking) Still a crappy coin, though.

Quote:How about this beauty 351599218154 The Red Book gives the mintage of the 1875-CC 20-Cent coin as 133,290. I can only assume that 133,289 would grade higher than the one currently for sale.

 Maybe an MS-67 if you start at 70 and subtract a quarter of a grade point per scratch. Also, in the stats it says it was graded by ANACS.

I don't think it's burnt, just beaten up and dirty. I don't know, you might be right.

Quote: Metal: 1.5 gram fine .999 Gold + 29.5 grams Tungsten Now they can claim it was sold as a fake. I like how they threw that stock photo in as well.
