<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Luckydas, post: 2329582, member: 69762&quot;]OK here are two examples of highly detailed coins which were downgraded for dark toning, but &quot;seem&quot; to be honest, with good surfaces. Both are ef-45, but have details of 50, similar to the coin being discussed from page 1. I have examined in-hand the first coin (PCGS45): Nice surfaces; just way dark, much darker than the photo.</p><p>To me, it means that the doctored coin from page 1 was downgraded to 35 because PCGS knew that the coin had been messed with, not just naturally dark, as these two examples are. So, it was a case of net-grading, it seems. </p><p>[ATTACH=full]472151[/ATTACH] </p><p>[ATTACH=full]472152[/ATTACH]&nbsp; [ATTACH=full]472153[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
