<p>[QUOTE=&quot;SuperDave, post: 2480050, member: 1892&quot;]OK, fair. In this case, though, I cannot imagine - if we assume the green wasn&#039;t PVC, on which you and I will have to disagree <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /> - any reason whatsoever to conserve the coin. Part of conservation is knowing when to say &quot;no,&quot; and the OP&#039;s coin (aside PVC) is a perfect example.</p><p><br /></p><p>The dark areas adhering to the lower obverse are sharp and abrupt enough to be fair indication of past cleaning. It seems as if PCGS reasoned &quot;well, we might as well finish the job&quot; and removed the rest, to the coin&#039;s detriment. It just baffles me why they&#039;d consider such a thing.</p><p><br /></p><p>All their vaunted technology is useless if they don&#039;t employ it properly, and in this case I don&#039;t believe they did.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
