    couple days ago i mentioned in the forum about a purchase i made and many suspected that the coin had been cleaned.

    the coin has now been posted to me and below are much better pictures of it to decide its provenance.

    I don't think anyone can be confident about an opinion on cleaning from those pictures. You need to go into Photoshop, or whatever editing program you use, and increase the size of the pictures. You may have to retake them in a higher resolution, as a large fuzzy shot wouldn't help much on the question at hand.

    Well, If you honestly believe it has not been cleaned, and you have not cleaned it yourself, then sell it with a 10 day or so return privledge. If whoever you sell it to thinks its cleaned, then he/she can return, no harm, no foul.
