<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Luckydas, post: 2327855, member: 69762&quot;]Coin doctors at work! Well I found the smoking gun. This coin was sold as NGC AU details, Heritage auction #1140, June 2010 Long Beach. This proves that the coin was since cracked out, artificially toned to hide the cleaning, and resubmitted for grading. It appears that PCGS was not entirely fooled, however. Only partly fooled. Hence, the 35 net grade.&nbsp; Funny, though; I still like the coin quite a bit. It&#039;s just too pricey for a cleaned coin at $4550. I did not purchase it. Odd that PCGS gave it a numerical grade at all, though. Pics of the cleaned coin to follow in a minute....[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
