Yokozuna Pillar of the Community United States 4618 Posts	Posted 11/27/2019 11:33 pm Ouch. Harshly cleaned. It's not a proof, it's just that the hairline scratches that are causing a false luster. Someone used a wire brush or steel wool on the coin. It might be AU, but it's only a "details" grade because of the cleaning.

Imag8r Valued Member United States 227 Posts	Posted 11/28/2019 10:49 am My local coin dealer said was cleaned but felt was a proof coin—how do you differentiate proof from non proof for this coin—the coin looks great to naked or minimal magnified eye but crappy when took pics—thanks Report this Post to the Staff

GrapeCollects Pillar of the Community United States 8939 Posts	Posted 11/28/2019 2:06 pm Not a proof. Strike quality and rims prove that it isn't a proof. Report this Post to the Staff
