    Do you have a picture of an example? I have never seen that before.
    Listen. Strange women lying in ponds distributing swords is no basis for a system of government. Supreme executive power derives from a mandate from the masses, not from some farcical aquatic ceremony.

    Possibly an administrative error.

    That coin looks cleaned, if that helps.

    It means it was holdered after James Taylor took over....... They changed the policy regarding "net grades"

    Actually, they stopped giving a net grade, and just gave a "details" grade with no mention of the reason for "netting".

    I'd like to know exactly when they started this, because after James Taylor took over, I sent in several problem coins and all of them have the reason they were netted. Yes, they stopped giving net grades unless you requested it, but they always list the reason for a details grade. I am willing to bet the coin posted by the OP was done in error. In other words, as someone else said, the coin looks cleaned and they forgot to put that on there.

    I think so. I just got a coin back for ANACS this past week graded F-12 Details-Cleaned.

    That is unusual and it is probably an oversight.

    From the pic, my guess is a light cleaning.

    Quite a costly error for the guy that won the coin for $160 on Teletrade tonite!image

    I also had two "details" coins arrive last week. Both are labeled with the reason (CLEANED, ARTIFICALLY TONED).
