USSID18 Pillar of the Community 5464 Posts	Posted 01/14/2018 9:19 pm There's been discussions about those pesky carbon spots on these 2017 P's that just will not come off. So I've been keeping my eyes open for clean/spot free ones. I'll post the three best ones I've found. I'll put one coin (6 different lighting shots) on three different posts so you can see the difference between them. The unfortunate thing here (just my luck), the ones I have found fairly clean of spots have hits and chatter. One other thing, I found these from bank rolls. Something else that seemed rather odd. 99% of the coins I have looked through have super shiny luster. These three had more of a satin finish/luster. Thanks for looking.

BadThad Bedrock of the Community United States 19965 Posts	Posted 01/15/2018 5:19 pm Those appear to be nice examples but it takes more than being spot free to hit the high grades. You also need blazing luster, clean fields and devices. I see some hits in the fields of these. Compare to the PCGS graded examples: http://www.PCGScoinfacts.com/Coin/Detail/620986 Lincoln Cent Lover! VERDI-CARE™ INVENTOR https://verdi.care/ Report this Post to the Staff

Man, there are hit, spots and chatter all over this thing! Edited by USSID18 01/15/2018 6:45 pm Report this Post to the Staff
