thisistheshow Pillar of the Community United States 987 Posts	Posted 02/11/2020 11:08 am I am relatively sure it is market acceptable. The toning pattern shows signs of an old cleaning. Do you see how it is darker at the edge devices? When it was cleaned a long time ago those would have been the areas that the cleaning would not have gotten to as much. Report this Post to the Staff
Xavocado New Member United Kingdom 32 Posts	Posted 02/11/2020 1:06 pm Thank you all for your feedback. I posted the other images in another post. It is a shame that just a clean can remove so much of the value. I would think that if the grade was in the lower end then a clean could be seen as a reasonable occurrence. Think I may just have to look for slabbed coins until I am better versed. Grateful for all the help as usual. Report this Post to the Staff

Please, others let me know if this is true. Edited to bold "it may" Edited by thisistheshow 02/11/2020 3:25 pm Report this Post to the Staff
