<p>[QUOTE=&quot;j0nnyjo, post: 408379, member: 15364&quot;]Hi all, </p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>I&#039;m new on the site - really looks like a great group of people and some really useful information! I apologize in advance if there is a lengthy discussion on this topic that I&#039;ve overlooked (I kind of imagine there probably is but I can&#039;t seem to find it).</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>I&#039;ve read a little bit about this subject in the FAQ forum, but I was just wondering if anyone might have a little further advice regarding detecting coins that will come back &quot;cleaned&quot; from PCGS/NGC (dipping doesn&#039;t seem to be a problem) - I have had this problem on multiple occasions and can&#039;t for the life of me reliably detect whether a coin has been &quot;cleaned&quot; to the extent that it will end up in the body bag from PCGS. Is there some threshold at which point they call it &quot;cleaned&quot;?</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>There have certainly been some that have seemed quite obvious (MS detail coins with clear parallel hairlines and a lack of cartwheel luster), but some don&#039;t seem to (at least that I can tell?).</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Any further insight would be very much appreciated! Thanks for your time and it&#039;s great to be here.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>-Jon[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
