<p>[QUOTE="Moonshadow, post: 535628, member: 17529"]I'm new to coin collecting, but I've already sunk a few hundred into silver dollars in February. I understand that cleaning coins is a no-no and it's something I won't do, but I have to comment that most of the graded Morgans and Peaces I've seen look as though they've been cleaned. Many of them bear scratch marks right across the face, and I have to wonder how could silver look that incredibly shiny when it's a over a hundred years old, (without some type of cleaning?) I'd love to get some clarification on this because something seems inconsistent.<img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie9" alt=":eek:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
