I don't think this coin has been cleaned, or if it has It was quite some time ago. It still has some cartwheeling and a little bit of luster. As far as scratchings ..... other than a few to the left of the eagles wing that seem to line up, the rest all seem too haphazard to be an intentional scrubbing and not in any direction. To me that says just normal wear an tear on a circulated 120 year old coin. I think my grade was about right when I graded it.

What do you think?

Would you be willing to post a closeup of the mint mark / bow area? Thanks!

XF details, look between the M and the Cap on the obverse and it appears that someone tried to remove something from that area. also, whats going on between ONE and DOLLAR on the reverse? like fortcollins stated can you get a close up of that area?

Here's your area in two different lighting conditions ..... I don't see anything alarming.

@KauaiHawaiiGuy, I played around with your original photos, and adjusted the images to reduce lighting and enhance color and sharpen the clarity a bit. May I have your permission to upload the adjusted images?

If my hunch is right, you may have a very interesting coin.
