This and the 1932 s are the only two bought graded, for authentication purposes. As such, I have long believed that any coin is cleaned unless grading confirms otherwise, which I am perfectly fine with to a point. This particular example, in hand, has a satin appearance but only at the right angle in the right light. My thoughts are that it was cleaned long ago at a time when that was an acceptable practice. That aside, the eye appeal is strong and was purchased well under market comparative to a straight graded example. So my question is, would you have bought this?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
