"Dipping" is not considered cleaning... -from PCGS website

Not dipped. Picture was taken in a way to reduce glare. So the camera doesn't show. It has lots of blind.
Sorry auto correct on phone. Bling not blind

Others are saying dipped, I don't think dipping a coin qualifies it for a details grade. I'd say problem-free. Also I don't see any wear on the coin, I'd say MS-62.

I took the picture with the coin on the outside edge of the picture, then cropped the photo to centre, this way the camera is not showing on the coin. I find this produces a good clear image for grading but it makes it look dull or bleached. Any suggestions? I'm not set up with the cannon rebel and stand just yet, but It is the plan. Picture taken with my new samsung galaxy s5. Works for now

I think taking good photos of a coin is probably one of the hardest things to do..
I use a binder to the coin is at an angle towards me... I use a soft indirect light and try to take the pictures close to a window in the day to take adavantage of the natural light... work the angle of the camera and light to minimize reflection.. try NOT to change or alter the image to the point where you affect the true likliness of the coin.

Quote: Absolutely dipped (not cleaned). ...doubleeagle59 I agree, but also would have to see in hand. I've seen some exceptional counterfeits lately, so now until it's in my hand, I don't believe anything I see any more. If it's authentic, it's a beauty MS 61 cleaned.

I would say AU 55 and if not dipped then whizzed..The fields look to clean , no dirt at all and those dark spots..+ if you look at the rev.. above the date and cents you can see marks and the Obv does show signs of hairlines ...
