<p>[QUOTE=&quot;physics-fan3.14, post: 4412279, member: 19165&quot;]&quot;Buffed&quot; is not generally used by the TPGs, but you get the idea of what it could mean. Whizzing involves a rapidly rotating wire brush - buffing could be done with a wheel but could also be done with polishing cloth. Usually, a buffed coin will receive the details grade &quot;burnished&quot; or &quot;polished,&quot; but it might also just get &quot;altered surfaces.&quot; Burnished coins usually intend to make very smooth surfaces. </p><p><br /></p><p>I think what JA probably intended with the &quot;buffed&quot; comment was &quot;wiped&quot; or &quot;brushed,&quot; which are commonly used terms. This coin certainly wasn&#039;t polished or harshly cleaned - but whoever did the dip may have brushed or wiped something on the reverse.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
