<p>[QUOTE=&quot;JPeace$, post: 2011402, member: 42727&quot;]Not exactly.&nbsp; The amount of wear on the coin you posted means it&#039;s been circulated.&nbsp; There are lines on the coin surfaces that lead one to believe it&#039;s been cleaned.&nbsp; If you took a freshly minted coin and rubbed a cloth across it, you&#039;d disturb the surfaces leaving telltale lines.&nbsp; There are coins in uncirculated or mint state condition that don&#039;t have any luster.&nbsp; The surfaces of those coins have been tarnished in some way shape or form. Strong luster (shiny) doesn&#039;t always mean the coin is uncirculated, nor does a lusterless (dull) coin always mean it&#039;s been circulated.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
