<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Tom B, post: 1620586, member: 11854&quot;]You appear to be having a difficult time with the idea that the coin has been polished, but it has without doubt been polished.&nbsp; A polish is a fine grit compound that typically does not impart the deep scratches and grooves of more abrasive cleaning methods.&nbsp; Instead, flow lines are generally obliterated and the surfaces of polished coins become much more homogeneous, flat and mirror-like.&nbsp; This is quite similar to how some jewelry or silverware appears after being polished.&nbsp; There is a very distinctive look to polished coins and this coin has been polished.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
