<p>[QUOTE=&quot;KBBPLL, post: 26609347, member: 104064&quot;]The converse of course is when you resubmit a details coin and it comes back straight graded, which in your case benefited someone else. In the case of my profile coin they (PCGS) mistook die polish for cleaning hairlines. I wasn&#039;t so much surprised as relieved when ANACS gave it a straight grade, because after examining every image I could find, many of which showed similar or identical die polish hairlines, I knew I was correct that the coin wasn&#039;t cleaned. It&#039;s the same frustration as yours when they throw a coin at a grader who has probably never seen a Canadian George VI specimen half dollar before, who just sees a &quot;haze&quot; and their knee-jerk reaction is &quot;cleaned.&quot; And then it gets past supposedly two other &quot;expert&quot; finalizers who just go &quot;yup&quot; and on to the next one.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
