This coin is housed in a yellow anacs holder so yes if you think its cleaned still put a numeric grade. for newcomers Anacs is the only top TPG that will give numeric grades to problem coins. I really posted to get comments of overall eye appeal I think the rims and denticles are exceptional and yes if I had better photos it would help.I think for $200 I did well

Ok it's Au 58 details cleaned but I buy stuff like this. I believe the 50 % of coins in slabs that aren't detail have in fact been cleaned at some point. I love the strike as I said I'm going to try to get better pictures so you can apprreciate the rims. The talons in hand look like an ms 65 coin that nice. Thank you all for your input.

Tiniest amount of wear on the high points. AU55. Pleasing coin!

Since almost all Bust coinage was cleaned at some point in time, it maintains most of its value as long as the cleaning has not hurt eye appeal; this coin still has good eye appeal and the cleaning would not reduce its market value substantially.

 Even though it is a details piece, it still is an awesome coin

Hmmm I wonder if it is due to the corrosion on the reverse around 50 C that caused this coin to get into a problem holder. Any cleaning that it may have had doesn't look too bad from these pictures.
