<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Jim Robinson, post: 2284774, member: 117134&quot;]Ok here&#039;s the scenario.&nbsp; You have for example a great MS Indian quarter eagle.&nbsp; You send it in for grading and low and behold it comes back MS details cleaned.&nbsp; You then carefully look it over again and notice a very nice MS reverse and then there it is.&nbsp; The obverse has slight evidence where it may have been either inadvertently or intentionally been wiped ONE time!&nbsp; The evidence is barely there but yep it&#039;s THERE!&nbsp; Ok, ok I know, it&#039;s not mint state if it has been &quot;cleaned&quot;.&nbsp; My question is shouldn&#039;t this coin now be downgraded to Au58 rather than MS details?&nbsp; Is one wipe a cleaning?&nbsp; </p><p>Any MS coin put into circulation would have received a similar one time wipe by simply dropping it into your pocket on day one.&nbsp; </p><p>Are not all circulated coins wiped.&nbsp; Hasn&#039;t&nbsp; a VF30 been wiped in one&#039;s pocket so much that it&#039;s lettering is just barely visible?&nbsp; </p><p>Is an AU58 more desirable than a details coin?&nbsp; I think so.&nbsp; Save the MS details for damages that would keep it from scoring a lower grade.&nbsp; Ie. Whizzed, polished, etc etc</p><p><br /></p><p>Just asking..[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
