Not particularly, but ANACS is not the toughest TPG, so if they think it's been cleaned then I wouldn't argue.

None of the TPG's like uneven toning. The area around the date seems to indicate an old cleaning that stripped the brown. Probably cleaned long ago and retoned. It would help it's case if cartwheel luster was apparent but I see none. Based on the condition, it should have luster.

With an MS cent, when it doubt, look for the cartwheels! All MS cents should have some.

Actually this one has some decent eye appeal.

Difficult to say, given the posted photos. For me, I'd prefer to see the coin in-hand (wouldn't we all...).
