reccomendations for grading a cleaned coin

[billionaire]

So i recently bought a coin that may have been cleaned and i am interested in getting it regraded. I bought an "ms-65" 1896-O morgan dollar and it came in a slab with no name of the grading company. It looks great ms something but just not 65. Also it came with the warning that it might have been cleaned so that will rule a couple companies out of grading it. Im thinking ANACS from my research but i would like some opinions.

A cleaned coin is a cleaned coin no matter where you get it graded. Post a pic please?

So, are you looking for a grade by a second tier grading company of a cleaned coin?

A cleaned coin is a cleaned coin no matter where you get it graded.

I completely agree, unfortunately some grading companies will still give it an actual grade after stating it has been cleaned.

I will make sure i post a picture of it soon. I read that some grading companies dont accept cleaned coins to be graded. Are there any obvious ways to know if a coin has been cleaned.

This will probably give a better explanation than I could. It has visuals!!!!!!!

And, no. Most grading services don't give a cleaned coin a full grade, just a details one that says "cleaned." Maybe you should look about returning it.

If purchased on Ebay, RETURN IT. I bought a similar coin, an 1878 CC and it was cleaned and 3 grades lower than the "grading company" claimed. Photo's of the coin made it look 10x better than they were in real life.

Here was the coin I purchased:

It looks like the seller re-listed it, and it sold for $510 with the feedback comment, "a very nice coin". Oh, well! I can see the bright light photo probably hides the wear and small nicks. Everybody be careful out there.

If so pm me, we need to chat.

Well that's a pretty significant problem... buying a MS 65 and getting a note it might have been cleaned.... and an even bigger problem is you're asking about grading it and not totally freaked out at the note.

I would like to see an image of this coin, you might have bought an AU58 and a cleaned on at that. If so then you might want to get a refund. All grading services will net grade a coin as AU or MS but it will get a genuine label with grade details from PCGS or ANACS.
