I have been having a good time reading some coin magazines from 1961, and decided to show you some pages the average coin collector saw in the press during the early 60s. It explains some questions we have seen about cleaning.
Here is one "SAFE" for proof coins!!
Another "SAFE"!!! and you can get a free cloth for drying or highlighting your coins! "ADDS VALUE" to your coins. WoW!!
Similar, but they charge for the highlighting rag.
Impregnated cotton wadding ~~" Non-abrasive"
All came from one issue. SO, wouldn't most average collectors use something like this as they seem so helpful, raise value, and cause no harm?
ALSO, about one every few months a "1943 copper cent" shows up. Here may be a good reason why.
And just for chuckles, here is a page of Lincoln Cents pricing
Now where did I park the DeLorean with the flux capacitor??
