[QUOTE="Mark Feld, post: 1313399, member: 11467"]In this particular case, the images from the earlier listing seem to confirm that the coin has indeed been cleaned (and that the second seller is probably a lowlife). But what if the original seller was mistaken and the coin hasn't been cleaned? My point is, the fact that one owner of a coin offers it as a problem coin and a subsequent seller does not, doesn't automatically make the second seller wrong or a scammer. In many instances, the top grading companies have no-graded a coin the first time through, and upon re-submission, graded it as problem free. As I have repeated a number of times over the years, often, the decision whether to grade or no-grade a coin can be as subjective and inconsistent as the decision regarding what numerical grade to assign.[/QUOTE]
