    The picture is too small and taken at an odd to be sure, but my impression is it has been cleaned.
    Retired dealer and avid collector of U.S. type coins, 19th century presidential campaign medalets and selected medals. In recent years I have been working on a set of British coins - at least one coin from each king or queen who issued pieces that are collectible.

    Can't really tell by the pics provided. Upload your pics to a free photobucket.com account
    and then copy the img code and paste here and we'll be able to see it better.

    I'd say it has not been cleaned by those pics.

    I did not see the pic before editing out, but I disagree with the following statement->

    Yes, there have been quite a few on EBay, and some have appeared at flea markets amd coin shows, as well. The number is growing, and the counterfeiters of the coins and the holders are getting better.
