I personally avoid older silver coins, that are referred as “white” as I would avoid any antique that has been cleaned to look like new. I’m buying both because they are not new. Modern coins slabed when new should be white, IMHO a 100 year old coin, does not “need” to look anything but 100 years old. Just my take on cleaning in general…. Rope
(I know this is an ancient thread, but I just had to comment!) Heck, I still have a grandmother, and no grandkids, and I can remember myself walking to the TV to switch channels between the 4 available!
Prior to television, I remember walking over to the Zenith radio (which was larger than current TV's) and changing the station/channel. :>)
