<p>[QUOTE="Jim Dale, post: 5166905, member: 100459"]I have never cleaned a coin and never will. When I get a new coin, I place it on a soft mat in front of my computer. I first, enter it into my database. Each coin has an alphanumeric code, with different fields to identify the coin. I didn't start my database until 2006, so there are some empty spaces for some codes that I got prior to 2006. I love to fiddle with the information of my coins. I add or delete info. I have worked in various types of accounting for over 30 years. Staff Accountant, State Auditor, State Controller Staff Accountant, Internal Auditor for a major university, and my last job was the Controller for the SBI (State Bureau of Investigations) Over my career, I learned a great deal about the importance of details and to be sure of my disclosure. That's the reason that coin collecting is so much fun. I think there should be a legal department in ANA to help collectors that have problems. Anyway, that's my thought, and I'm sticking to it! Now There!![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
