Let me just add my opinion, for what it's worth, on "cleaning" or "cleaned" coins. Personally, I do not have a problem with "cleaning" a coin to...
Wow, you all have some very nice proofs, especially Lee's - very pretty Indian cents, just love the colors! Even all the silver toned proofs are...
I have to humbly but strongly disagree with you on this one - I think the graininess is due to the photo, not the coin. This is definitely MS.

By the way, it's an Indian cent.:smile And I believe Boss said it already was in a PCGS holder, so I think it won't be too difficult to get it...
