kbbpll Pillar of the Community United States 4233 Posts	Posted 02/18/2019 01:09 am I have bought a couple raw recently where the seller declares "details" or "cleaned" and it's really not, or not enough to have influenced my decision because it was the variety I was after. Lack of luster can be misinterpreted as over-dipped when a year/mint is notorious for so-so luster, or excessive polishing lines mistaken for cleaning, etc. Not strictly for eye appeal though.

T-BOP Rest in Peace United States 18456 Posts	Posted 02/18/2019 08:01 am Come to think of it I have a few raw detail coins in my possession that I bought a long time ago because they were old ( early 1800's ), had a ton of history behind them and price was cheap with a decent eye appeal .

Andrew99 CCF Advertiser United States 1533 Posts	Posted 02/18/2019 1:17 pm I have bought details coins and cracked them out. If the details grade is due to rim bumps or "damage" and the damage looks old, like it was contemporaneous, then the coin will often sell raw at a grade back. In a details holder it will go 2-3 grades back at times. Report this Post to the Staff
