<p>[QUOTE="tommyc03, post: 2281582, member: 17665"]I can't agree that the coin was cleaned simply because of the dark spots here and there. I'm sure ANAC's would have given it a details grade if it was. Remember, this coin is very old and may have been stored in any number of possible environments. There were no coin holders in it's early days and coins were stored by collectors in cabinets. Older homes had fireplaces, coal and wood stoves for heat and a very poor humidity situation. What may appears as a cleaning to some may just be some environmental cause. But not enough to give it a details label.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
