More generically, if something is "in" the metal of the coin, and not simply sitting on the surface, it cannot be cleaned without damage. Same...
True, it has been used and basically has the same "ingredients" as my method. I guess I am like Eduard, I am in no rush. These coins have been...
I bought rolls of nickels. How is that not buying 39 duplicates? Sorry, I thought my buying a roll of 39d nickels is basically the same as me...
Best, (and least objectionable), advice? Throw it in a manila coin envelope, leave the top open, and put it away somewhere for 5 years.
I agree and seriously disagree with Fatima's assertion most small employers do not offer direct deposit. While I agree that maybe a small...

But personal anecdotes that support Fatima's position are valid newsworthy historical information. Those that don't are simply easily dismissed...
But historically democracies forbade the picture of a ruler on a coin. Read about the history of Roman Republican coinage. The fact Caesar put his...
Maybe I missed it, sorry if its a stupid question, but what grading standard does CAC say was fairly applied? Do they use PCGS' grading system for...
Interesting. I see harsh cleaning, but not sure about wear. I think the coin has been "messed with", hence a 60 versus a 63 grade. Just my...
:( Its in January. It used to be in early December, but was held at the world trade center, and after...... they couldn't find a good spot for...
