<p>[QUOTE=&quot;GDJMSP, post: 2779081, member: 112&quot;]Absolutely. Learning how to correctly identify harshly/improperly cleaned coins, in all their forms, is one of the most difficult things there is in numismatics. </p><p><br /></p><p>But &quot;fuzzy edges&quot; ? I get your point but - nahhhhh. A coin has either been harshly cleaned or it hasn&#039;t - there are no fuzzy edges. Or, at the very least, that&#039;s how it is supposed to be, and always was for many, many, years - even among the TPGs, and long before the TPGs ever existed.</p><p><br /></p><p>But I will grant you this much, that isn&#039;t how it is with them anymore. In today&#039;s world they routinely cleanly grade coins that they would have body bagged, back when they still had body bags. A single wipe was enough to body bag a coin, and that is how it should be.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
