    I think I see small hairlines across both the obverse and reverse. Not sure what it would look like in person. So in my opinion at least cleaned - I do not know if the pictures make it look worse than it is or not. Just my opinion.

    In the pictures, the hairlines really standout on the reverse...but its hard to tell on the obverse. This coin has been cleaned for sure, it's hard to tell in the photos but I'll bet it's pretty harsh.

    I'd guess that it has been harshly cleaned, but perhaps begun to retone. Either that, or the photo is altered.

    My eyes must be getting real bad , at 1st I was going to say no not cleaned , but after reading the other posts , I can see something on the reverse , wether cleaned or scrapes I can't tell from the pics , still these are warning signs , so I'd stay away unless you get a great deal .

    I say harshly cleaned. I think it would be more apparent in hand.

    Also the grade of VF-35 is a little high too , and $180 is also high , you can find a lot nicer it just takes time .
