doubleeagle59 Pillar of the Community Canada 2495 Posts	Posted 08/18/2016 10:36 pm Seller has over 12 years experience and knows how to tell a cleaned coin. Apparently the seller has some learning to do. Below is an example of a super highly polished coin most likely done on a jeweller's buffing wheel and you can even see the residual polishing rouge (black powder) against the sides of the antlers and in between other high relief areas. I hope everyone is in agreement with this. Edited by doubleeagle59 08/18/2016 10:38 pm Report this Post to the Staff

DBM Pillar of the Community Canada 9864 Posts	Posted 08/19/2016 01:06 am Shocking news! A polished coin on ebay! Say it ain't so. This same seller has been selling similarly treated GeoVI quarters for a long long time now. "Dipping" is not considered cleaning... -from PCGS website Report this Post to the Staff
