<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Vess1, post: 20894801, member: 13650&quot;]Yeah, IME sending anything in seems like a roll of the dice.&nbsp; I believe and am hopeful it will cross.&nbsp;&nbsp; You can think you have it figured out and then they notice something you didn&#039;t.&nbsp; As long as it straight grades is all I care.&nbsp; If it downgrades, it&#039;ll be an expensive lesson.&nbsp; &nbsp; Fairly unique example for the grade so is worth it to me.&nbsp; </p><p>&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp; I&#039;m in total agreement with the A,B,C assessment.&nbsp; Have seen it a lot.&nbsp; I believe it takes many more hours of evaluating coins than many collectors commit to it in order to notice it.&nbsp;&nbsp; Color, strike, luster/no luster, staining, spots, marks, abrasions, and overall eye appeal, all play a roll in it, even if allowable for the grade.&nbsp; But the prices will all be the same.&nbsp; If it&#039;s an A its usually above price guide values without needing a + designtation.&nbsp; And if you aren&#039;t willing to pay, they don&#039;t care.&nbsp;&nbsp; </p><p>&nbsp; </p><p>&nbsp;&nbsp; I&#039;ve seen ICG slabs noting cleaned coins, I was just wondering if anybody thought they were as good at catching cleaned coins as the leading services, if anybody would even know or had an opinion.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
