<p>[QUOTE=&quot;borgovan, post: 512489, member: 13016&quot;]ANACS is giving the coin a technical grade. They are stating the grade, and giving the problem(s) separately. So, in this case, if the coin had not been cleaned, you could call it MS-60. </p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>However, they are recognizing that the coin has been cleaned, and the buyer may want to take that into account.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Different generations of ANACS slabs have given different information. At one time, they would have given a net grade as well. For instance, that same coin might read &quot;MS-60 details, cleaned, net AU-50.&quot; In that case they would be giving you the same information about the coin as in the previous case, but in addition, they would be offering the opinion that the cleaning is of a severity such that the coin is &quot;equivalent&quot; to an AU-50 coin for market purposes.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
