My questions is, I’m no coin expert when it comes to coins that have been cleaned, polished, dipped etc. there’s a chance this coin has been re toned there’s no noticeable scratches with eye sight or anything besides light wear around the lettering and places on the reverse. I sell a lot of coins and I do my best to take adequate pictures for any bidders and if I see something I will say it in the description, I want to be fair and I care about my reputation as well. What is the best way for a non professional to state that a coin has or hasn’t been cleaned I am unaware but there a still chances? I also provide a return service and start my biddings extremely low. I just want to be forward about my coins may have been cleaned or may not but also not make it sound like they are and I’m trying to hide something by hammering that part. Is there any tactics on what you guys use or say for this? I am very proud of this piece though and it will be one of the hardest to part with [ATTACH=full]1179693[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1179694[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
