I like to hear you folks thoughts on this. I picked it up a couple months ago, it's (obviously) already in a flip. The brown spot at 7 o'clock is a bit of something on the flip.

XF-details (cleaned), perhaps? Honestly, I'm not all that sure on this one, simply because I have no experience grading twenty-cent pieces.

XF details with AU color could mean cleaned for these doubledimes. Lots of sharp detail and a snazzy coin but all 4 of my XF 20 centers are battleship grey with blue and black toning. Cleaned or straight grade thats a nice example i.m.o.
That baby ought to be considered for a TPG slab which would put issue to rest its a winner either way

It does appear cleaned in these images but it could grade market acceptable for problem-free imo. AU50.

As I am in Australia finding a US 20 Cents Double Dime has been a challenge I have not been able to answer for some years. Would love to have an example in my collection.

I see a narrow range of grade opinions, and would agree with those.

IMO, XF.
I don't see the "cleaned" part.

it just as difficult in the US to find one in decent shape and that would grade straight. the obverse bothers me. its either a weak strike or when you see a coin that looks like its melted it typically points to an old cleaning and polishing. I think if you take the coin out of the holder and dont use any overhead lighting would help. even a slight angle shot of the obv would help determine surface originality
