    I sent him a message asking if the coin had been cleaned. I just want to test his honesty. He does have a 100% feedback and most people buying his coins seem to be happy..... could be that he is padding his feedback with another account, I haven't looked at it that closely. Either way, I can't wait to hear what he has to say about the coin with OBVIOUS cleaning marks on it. I'll keep you posted!

    Well.....so much for honesty..... maybe this guy just really doesn't know what a cleaned coin looks like???? Here is the question I sent him and the response I received from him:

    Dear usmoneypost,

    Has this coin been cleaned?
    Thanks.

    Dear asutodd,

    Thank you for your interest and question.
    To the best of our knowledge, this coin has not been cleaned. The coin was acquired as part of a collection.

    The coin has a natural shine which was reflected by the studio lights and flash used in the photography, particularly on the obverse.

    Good Luck, Happy Bidding, and Happy New Year

    The reverse is the most obvious on it.

    That's odd, I've never run across a Swiss EA with pickled surfaces. image

    Really? I wonder why.
