  My guess is cleaned.

  I don’t know if it’s cleaned or not, but that’s a lot of money for a raw coin you can’t hold first. Good luck!

  Agreed... Unc details with altered surfaces. ...maybe whizzed??? Tough to tell from the images.

  This for sure. Plus I don't care for the "story".

  Kirk222, that coin has been messed with. Listen to the peanut gallery! And take their advise!

  Thanks, youz guyz are good. I did not catch the "tooling". Is it around the ear hole?

  I don’t see any references to “tooling”. Did someone mention that and later edit it out of their post?

  I suggested it in another thread @MFeld , so maybe @Kirk222 saw that.

  The coin looked fully worked to me when I looked, including some possible tooling in the shield lines and the hair/ear/head area. I could be wrong. I only looked long enough to hurt my eyes. I think for sure it's cleaned.

  I didn't post to this thread, but I agreed with a couple of comments. I don't like to slam on-going auctions, but that is a suckers game IMO

  Thanks Todd. I can’t see the coin clearly enough to form an opinion on tooling.

  I don’t like the spot of color beneath the shield among other things. Pass.

  Just based on the pictures (and that too is risky), I believe the coin has been cleaned at least, and perhaps further work has been done. Real risk here... Raw, and we know what photography can do when it comes to coins - and other offerings. Cheers, RickO

  Like any other key dates, there is a reason it is not in a TPG holder.
