Mark1959 Pillar of the Community 7234 Posts	Posted 04/29/2018 9:22 pm NO, a whizzed coin will have a ton of fine scratches across the coins face with fine scratches and will be "shiny" from the wire bristles. Report this Post to the Staff

Zurie Pillar of the Community United States 5686 Posts	Posted 04/30/2018 02:38 am Looks okay, but I don't think you can always tell a whizzed coin unless you look at it in hand under magnification. You can still see luster like this coin has, and the brush marks can be too fine to see in a photo. Report this Post to the Staff

moxking Rest in Peace United States 17900 Posts	Posted 04/30/2018 08:21 am It's not whizzed. Whizzed coins either have obvious tiny scratches, or, if buffed afterwards, a luster appearance that does not break across fields and design elements. Report this Post to the Staff
