<< <i>And the same answer: There is a huge point with very valuable coins where authentication is critical for resale value and liquidity, but submissions like these are a reminder that some people should sanity-check their potential submissions with a trusted and knowledgeable dealer or collector before throwing good money after bad. >>
looking at the lot submitted, there's not a lot of high end potential there in a genuine holder.
before they sent them in? It would be my guess that's what has
occurred. They where playing the game and it doesn't look like it worked out to well?

I kinda had a feeling that Mr. Feld would respond in that manner!!!!
I agree with you of course!!!

Agree. He may be new to the hobby and bought these coins from one of those CW dealers with full page ads that sell primarily all raw coins.

My first submission to NGC had 50 % improperly cleaned coins. I told the owner it wouldn't be pretty. As if there's a proper way to cleaning.

Cleaning on Morgan & Peace dollars are pretty easy to see. Maybe this submitter just didn't have the knowledge of what to look for.

No easier than any other series, the difference is there are so many pristine coins that the MA rate for cleaning is much lower. It's the classic series that get people in trouble as what one person considers ok with cleaning/retoning/grime/color is not MA to someone else even though they can both agree what pristine is....which is but rarely obtainable in series like CHB for one
