SilverDon Pillar of the Community Canada 2360 Posts	Posted 03/15/2015 6:02 pm I got this a while ago, was scanning my coins with macro lens and saw this gash in the back of the Native rower. Should I return this coin? Could it be a flaw in the planchet, a clash, some sort of Mint damage or is it PMD. Thanks. Edited by SilverDon 03/15/2015 6:22 pm Report this Post to the Staff

doubleeagle59 Pillar of the Community Canada 2495 Posts	Posted 03/15/2015 8:32 pm What grade did they sell it? Actually I don't know why I asked this because the obverse is where 80% of the 'grade' comes from. I would only be upset if the coin was sold as an ms65. MS64 and lower wouldn't faze me one bit.

wireman09 Pillar of the Community Canada 972 Posts	Posted 03/15/2015 8:34 pm It's just a bad bag mark hidden because it's on the native's back. No worse than the bag mark on the canoe. Not a bad dollar with nice lustre but unfortunately has a few heavy marks. Don't know what you paid for that dollar Don but it looks to be around MS62 from what I can see on the reverse. I have many 1954 dollars both raw and ICCS certified. If your interested PM me with the grade your interested in and I'm sure I could supply you with an example that you would be happy with. I'd have no problem parting with one for a fellow collector. Edited by wireman09 03/15/2015 8:45 pm Report this Post to the Staff
SilverDon Pillar of the Community Canada 2360 Posts	Posted 03/16/2015 05:50 am No scratches were noted in the original sale, I was not diligent in checking the coin when I got it (lesson learned). It was sold as EF/AU (only a $30 coin). Usually if there is a scratch mark or impairment then it is noted. Yes CA, I have a good relationship, hopefully they will replace. I was happy to note that the original invoice where it was not a blow out sale or any other kind of deal where a return would be difficult. I think when I got it I focused on the waterlines. Thanks for the comments. Will get on the phone/email tomorrow. Wireman09 thanks for that kind offer, I get a sense of fellowship from comments like that one. If I get no satisfaction, I'll send you a message. Report this Post to the Staff

AgCoinAu Pillar of the Community Canada 3049 Posts	Posted 03/16/2015 10:18 am I have heard nothing but good things of CA... but I don't know how much time has passed... That's sort of the big kicker... I mean at what point do you say that you're not willing to accept returns? You say you have a good relationship with them.. that's good that will probably help your case. As they will want to keep a good thing going as well. I say if you can .. return it.. or your eye will always go to that gash on the back and you won't be happy. Report this Post to the Staff
