<p>[QUOTE=&quot;GDJMSP, post: 8007962, member: 112&quot;]In al honesty I see no signs that this coin has been harshly/improperly cleaned - none ! Does it have some light scratches and hairlines ? Yes, it absolutely does. But light scratches and hairlines such as this coin has are beyond extremely common on well circulated coins. And there is nothing about any of these light scratches and hairlines that would indicate the coin has been harshly/improperly cleaned for the look of light scratches and hairlines due to wear are completely different than those caused by harsh/improper cleaning !</p><p><br /></p><p>And no, the coin is not worthy of a details slab for over-dipping either. Has it been dipped ? Again, yes, it absolutely has. But over-dipping as a reason for a details slab only applies when luster has been stripped from the coin by the dip. And all the luster on this coin was long gone from circulation wear before it was ever dipped.</p><p><br /></p><p>I do however believe that the coin has been over-graded a good bit. I would grade it no better than VF20 given the amount of wear the coin has. But I would give this coin a clean grade every time.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
