    I recently got a coin which I think may have had MS70 (cleaner) used on it (not sure), it has a really nice tone to it (that's one of the reasons why I suspect ms70) would a grading company still grade a coin cleaned w/ms70 or will cleaning with this product result in "body bagging" of my coin? Any personal experiences would be best, but any word on this would help.

    Not sure if this coin is NT or AT, or if MS70 is even consider AT if used (by grading companies).


    here's a pic of the coin btw it looks more dark reddish in hand. I was thinking about getting it graded but not sure if it'd be worth the time.

    A coin cleaned with MS-70 would most likely be considered improperly cleaned, and therefore would get bodybagged.

    The toning on that coin looks unnatural to me. I'm going to say cleaned and recolored.

    cool thanks, I appreciate the opinion. Oddly enough the coin looks sooo much different in person, I think the put the light directly on it (glare) or something for this photo. But a lot of people are saying they thing it's AT, not to worry though b/c when bidding for this there were 18 other bids from like 10 other people so I'm sure if I really wanted I could just resell pretty easily, think I'll keep this one though b/c even if AT it looks freakin sweet (in hand at least, this pic looks good but nothing compared to the coin in hand).
