G'Day there, I acquired this over the weekend, it has been cleaned "can see the aftermath of a Jewellery cloth's scratch's"(very distinct).
There also happens to be a small "Carbon Hole' spot ( just under the Bottom left hand side of the Crown!) apart from that, the detail is excellent with maybe about 93% of the Crown's Orb & an almost undented Rim!

I think it may have been a coin in a Ef grade, Untill it got cleaned? What should the grade be now as it is? I've never tried to grade a coin that's been cleaned up! Not that I mind as there is a lot of detail there to compensate with the cleaning. I paid $80, maybe $20 to much?
What do you guy's think on this? Cheer's jpl..

Sorry mate but I think you paid $50 too much.
This has all the hallmarks of a "Peter Wallace" coin

Peter wallace is an ebay germ who has 95% of his coins cleaned. If you can I would try and get a refund. As trout said its only worth melt in that condition.
