biokemist6 Bedrock of the Community United States 12437 Posts	Posted 04/26/2014 10:40 pm Coins with minor rim damage such as the one you posted make good candidates for cracking out a placing in an album because the album helps to hide rim dings. Report this Post to the Staff

Matteproof Pillar of the Community Korea, Republic Of 1881 Posts	Posted 04/27/2014 10:28 am Every slabbed coin on sale in Korea seems to have their cert number and barcode covered up, when it is necessary with some items to check their cert number in the TPG website to see if it matches the coin for sale. I've always wondered why people would do it. Maybe to protect the slab from counterfeiting by not showing the cert number, etc. that will be necessary when faking a slab?

Cruisinfusion Pillar of the Community United States 1531 Posts	Posted 04/27/2014 11:54 pm Now that you point it out jack, all the slabbed coins with two problems have damaged OR tooled, cleaned OR damaged, cleaned OR scratched. Report this Post to the Staff

Not that I have ever seen. https://goccf.com/t/151028 The OR indicates the marks were from one or the other but they were unable to tell not that it really made a difference. This coin was holed then plugged and then tooled but the slab only lists the main problem which is the plugged hole http://www.ebay.com/itm/1793-WREATH...em338dd40d07 Edited by jack jeckel 04/28/2014 12:19 am Report this Post to the Staff
burks Valued Member United States 118 Posts	Posted 04/28/2014 01:49 am 40% sounds very reasonable. I'd rather buy a coin with a rim ding like yours over something that's been heavily cleaned/polished. I'll even take a coin with a minor scratch over heavy cleaning/polishing. Really rim dings don't bother me much at all, especially when the coins aren't MS. For me, that's "acceptable" in the life of a coin. Now bashed and beat on, no thanks. Goes double for Trade dollars. Seems they are very hard to find that aren't chop marked, beat on, polished, etc. Tiny ding? Big whoop! Report this Post to the Staff
