<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Patrick King, post: 1954935, member: 40229&quot;]From what I can see, I agree with the TPG&#039;s assessment that your coin has been cleaned (hairlines under and in front of the chin). However, I don&#039;t believe that the coin should have been &quot;body bagged&quot;, as many European collectors think that cleaning coins is actually good, which has made for an increased population of cleaned coins from Europe, and especially Germany.</p><p><br /></p><p>Usually, instead of no-grading cleaned German coins I see TPG&#039;s net grade, usually to 61 or 62. I think your coin looks too nice to be net graded to a 62, so the graders decided to no-grade it as apposed to netting the grade down 2 or 3 points. That&#039;s just my opinion on the matter. I think that is a very nice coin which has been cleaned a long time ago, but retoned nicely.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
