<p>[QUOTE=&quot;greg0311, post: 1795323, member: 57132&quot;]hello all--newer to here, but have been collecting and roll searching for a long while. i have boughten slabbed coins but never sent anything in--but am considering needing to. I had a question, and is in clarification to what someone had told me---here goes--i know grading services will grade, or rather mark as &#039; Genuine&#039;&nbsp; if cleaned, or such and such details, &#039;cleaned/ improperly cleaned.&#039;&nbsp; Someone had told me they( Grading services) can tell if a coin had any sort of cleaning---even if just dropped in hot water, water, or dawn dish soap......I know if a coin is polished, abraded, acid dipped or acid dated, it is blatantly obvious---but what if you had a coin you did not think was cleaned, but went through the wash in someones pocket or was &#039;mildly&#039; washed off ( no acid/polish) some time years ago????&nbsp; if you send something in to be graded, are you just taking that chance?? is there any &#039;rule&#039; to tell if cleaned if not obvious?? Thank you in advance for any help/replies/comments/info. and sorry so long winded.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
