    Not a pretty sight

    The 1938-D Walking Liberty Half pictured above looks as though it had been whizzed. The circular patterns of light look like the work of a small buffer, the kind of pen-light sized tool that a model builder might have.

    It is never possible to be 100% certain by judging a scanned image, but that is how it looks to me.

    It does say whizzed in the description. It looks like it was whizzed by my 8 year old daughter. Only thing is that my daughter would have added glitter.

    That's what whizzed looks like when somebody doesn't know what they are doing.

    For the most part, I don't have a problem with cleaned coins but... I'd have a problem with *that* one.
