Define "Cleaning."

Go for it, just please don't go too negative with it. I am still a simple caveman and still not comfortable with these new-fangled robot-boxes, and they become smaller with more power approximately every third equinox or solstice; whichever one causes the most people to pull the most rag-paper with these abstract symbols out of their storage and trade handfuls for the newest status symbol that they perceive will give them more power in our tribe "of those that walk on two hands".

I wouldn't get drawn into that debate. Maybe that's just me, but what's silly about it is, it's just a debate on whether to hang a label on the coin. Focus on the coin and on what's wrong with the coin, then value it accordingly. This label, "cleaned," is a death sentence. And the coin doesn't give a crap whether the luster break was caused by a cleaning or the coin having circulated from pocket-to-pocket for 50 or 100 years. It just doesn't. Ask it, you'll see.

 

DEFINE CLEANING: to moderate a coin forum.

 

Moderate a coin forum definition: Supervise and view all threads at all times in order to issue warnings , enforce the rules , remove inappropriate posts , and (I wish) delete any post (like this one ) that has nothing to do with the discussion!

 

DEFINE babysitting adults in a coin forum: To remove unwanted material.
And we're back...

 

AMEN! Now I'm going to try to follow my own wish. I'll give you the last off track post.

Hopefully, some clowns will not take this as a challenge to muck-up the thread further.

 

Wishful thinking, but I like your optimism.

 

And this can be the last of the 7 posts taking about talking on a coin forum. Hahaaaaaa couldn't resist.

 

Surely you jest...
