<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Numismat, post: 2156542, member: 15019&quot;]So I&#039;ve had this coin for a while and just dug it out today. I had purchased it in a PCGS holder, it was marked as genuine but cleaned. I cracked it out as soon as I got it home, as I always do with slabs. </p><p>Now, I am wondering why exactly they felt it was cleaned. There are adjustment marks visible on the central design areas, as is typical for these coins. The same can be seen on another example that was auctioned a while back which PCGS gave a numerical grade: <a href="http://www.bonhams.com/auctions/18404/lot/1023/" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.bonhams.com/auctions/18404/lot/1023/" rel="nofollow">http://www.bonhams.com/auctions/18404/lot/1023/</a></p><p>Am I missing something here?</p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://i267.photobucket.com/albums/ii314/Numismat/D874FB24-4D98-4A03-91A8-7F479157FEE9.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://i267.photobucket.com/albums/ii314/Numismat/D6D2DAA9-ECCF-407F-A5CC-48D3ECECA9C9.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
