<p>[QUOTE="buddy16cat, post: 2254574, member: 37356"]I am confused how some people throw around the word damaged like the coin has a big gaping hole, bent, orange from cleaning, with graffiti on it. I guess it is subjective. Maybe every coin in the earlier 1800's is supposed to look like it was just minted this year. It looked like a decent color to me and looked original, maybe not enough for some. I can tell you many would prefer a heavily cleaned coin than something original that is sub-par if it looks better.</p><p><br /></p><p>I wouldn't use tap water on coins, distilled water only.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
