Yeah I wouldn't be too concerned about it, that's not a very harsh cleaning and it's still an attractive coin. Just something to know if you ever...
A well-worn coin from the Isle of Man, featuring a triskelion. [IMG] [IMG]
So if you have two identical coins, one with a + designation and one with a green CAC sticker, which would typically demand the higher premium?
I may be paranoid, but that mintmark looks a bit closer to the date than usual.
That sounds like a fairly effective strategy. Is there a certain amount of profit you aim for on each coin?

A complete set of Imperial Rome denarii/antonii. A rainbow toned silver US type set. The Ultra High Relief Saint-Gaudens. The octagonal Panama...

What type of payment method do you have your buyers use?

Interesting. I might have to pick up one of those coins myself!
I've never used acetone before—how long should I dip it?
I know there's going to be a big color difference, I just think it will look better without that nasty yellow residue on it. I'd rather not dip...
I've got what looks like tape damage and residue on the obverse of this 1897-P. Is there any way to safely get rid of the residue? It's not a...
