[QUOTE="abdelghany, post: 1261231, member: 33004"]I am new to collecting coins. I just purchased this coin online and still have time to send it back. Please tell me what I can look for in a cleaned coin. I suspect it has been cleaned because of its shiny yellow color. I also note what look like abrasions? This is close to the color of the coin: [IMG]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v622/abdelghany/DSC09942.jpg[/IMG] This is the same coin under different lighting: [IMG]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v622/abdelghany/DSC09848.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v622/abdelghany/DSC09855.jpg[/IMG] Someone please take the time out to respond. I might not be able to make it to a dealer today. Also if the coin has been cleaned it's my own fault. The auction showed a thumb nail picture so basically I blindly bought it. Thanks in advance[/QUOTE]
