I have seen some slabbed coins I am interested in and they are graded Genuine, not gradable... does this mean they are cleaned or somthing else?

The last two numbers are indicative of what PCGS thinks is the problem, here is the copy and paste of the code and link:

No Grade Description
91 Artificial Color
92 Cleaning
93 Planchet Flaw
94 Altered Surfaces
95 Scratch / Rim Dent
97 Environmental Damage
98 Damage
