Does the hit on the arm keep it from grading?

    Thought on if they'll grade? I don't think any will to be honest...they all look cleaned to me and have an unnatural appearance.

    They look polished to me. If they are, they might not grade.

    The dimes look a little too bright with that much wear.

    All won't grade for being cleaned

    They're all obviously cleaned, the dimes more harshly so than the quarter.

    The quarter at least has some nice details and I would find it acceptable for a modest, raw album set (though hopefully it would retone some over time).

    All of them would trade at a discount, and none would be worthy of slabbing, I'm afraid.

    Details/Genuine only. None of those will end up in problem-free holders I'm afraid.

    Don't waste the money on slabbing fees.

    I don't think he asked about slabbing potential. But all look cleaned and some have au details. might be okay if cheap enough. the prices shown look a little high imo. ?

    imo, combine the money and buy one problem free coin.

    IMO they all could have been purchased as problem free for the prices listed!

    Actually, he did, with the quarter.

    The hit on the arm was a moot point since the cleaning would keep that coin from grading anyways, but had the coin been original and uncleaned, it would have been a fair question. My personal guess is that there would have been maybe a 60-70% chance that the hit would have caused a no-grade, but there's also chance it could've squeaked by. It looks kinda deep, though, like a "cut" rather than a "hit".

    Definitely a substandard coin with the cleaning and the hit, but I still don't hate it. It has its good points, too. I agree with the EF45 "details" grade on the holder. Not the price, though.
