I wanted to know if this coin is cleaned or is it actually BU on its own and worth getting, I won it but idk if it's worth it because I looked up the company that graded it and one person complained they clean their coins but there is multiple people disclaim in this and I personally am not able to tell over pictures.  *** Moved by Staff to a more appropriate forum. *** |

 to CCF. I can tell you that is what we call a "basement slabber". There are three grading companies you can trust,PCGS-NGC and ANACS. John1  |

Everytime I go to post the obverse the reverse shows up instead even though I know for 100% fact that it's right.  |

It's not cleaned imo. Probably a 64 maybe a 65. The cheek if really clean can make it a 65.

Picture of reverse is blurry but from what I can see looks like 65.
IN NECESSARIIS UNITAS - IN DUBIIS LIBERTAS - IN OMNIBUS CARITAS THE MAN IN THE ARENA, Theodore Roosevelt at the Sorbonne Paris on April 23, 1910: " It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles or where the doer of deeds could have done better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly, who errs and comes up short again and again, because there is no effort without error or shortcoming, but who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions, who spends himself in a worthy cause; who, at the best, knows, in the end, the triumph of high achievement, and who, at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who knew neither victory nor defeat."

Doesn't look cleaned. Not a 66. Maybe 65, but more likely a 64.
Keep in mind that if you ever want to sell this coin, that slab will make it harder to sell to a segment of the collecting populace.

I would avoid this coin like the plague, simply because the owner of NNC is notorious for doctoring damaged coins and severely over grading them. 1882 isn't a particularly rare date, so I'm sure you can find an example you like in a PCGS or NGC holder.

Agreed. I see this as closer to a 64 than a 65. to the CCF! Edited by Coinfrog
