I tend to agree with that. The "helping" of the coin proved to be its undoing, it seems. The original slab with the 64 grade would have been fine with me. If it ain't broke, don't fix it... Of course, none of us has seen the piece in question, either in the before- or after-cleaning state so it's hard to comment. >>
If the coin did indeed have a layer of PVC then unfortunately it had to be fixed.......so yes it sounds like it was broke >>
If it had PVC then one might ask, how did it get graded the first time around? (Of course, for that matter if it had filed rims how did it get graded the first time around?)
