very impressive results. i presume you dabbed instead of rubbing? how easy did the haze come off? what kind of cloth did you use? microfiber?
Is it a fool's errand to sell this coin and try to re-buy without haze? Sounds like it. Also sounds like any coin outside a slab or ogp without...
My strong assumption was yes. Unless there's some reason not.
If i do this, would a tpg body bag my coins for cleaning?
So what would you rather have, ugly haze or a small hairline? Explains why the only ones I saw without haze were cracked open.
For what it's worth, the coin looks much better in person. I have horrible trouble with lighting when I take photos. Actual coin has a lot more...
the consensus on the board seems to be that when you have coins with haze on them, the best thing to do is get rid of them.

For fun, what would put you in high roller territory?
I have cameras already. Houston has a lot of break-ins unfortunately. I had a coworker have his house broken into four times. Only thing that...
Speedbump, to be clear, you're suggesting that unless I fear a professional attack with ample time, i need not invest in even a TL-15? Even in...
anyone have any thoughts on TL-15 vs. something sturdier?
I need to buy a real safe as the value of my collection is climbing and I've only got one of those lousy Sentry safes that destroy coins. I've...
