<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Murphy45p, post: 3602288, member: 96005&quot;]Others on here are more knowledgeable than I am, but improper cleaning can be evidenced by tiny scratches on the features or in the fields.&nbsp; An improper cleaning can also affect the luster of the coin, change its color, it should be shiny and reflective, not pale and flat.&nbsp; Grading uncs and higher to me is where the real skill comes in, I would think you might look at other examples grading at certain levels and always look at your coins with a skeptical eye, under a good light and high magnification.&nbsp; Hope that helped.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
