<p>[QUOTE="Cloudsweeper99, post: 159649, member: 3011"]samjimmy,</p><p><br /></p><p>I own some cleaned and damaged coins. Everybody probably does. I don't mind owning a cleaned coin as long as I paid a cleaned coin price for it and wanted it anyway. Many coins are out of my price range unless they are circulated or "problem" coins. I see absolutely no downside from slabbing any and every coin if the owner desires it and is willing to pay for it. It might even encourage some collectors to submit more problem coins to be graded if they thought they could get them slabbed as "MS62-Cleaned" instead of returned in a body bag to be passed on to another unsuspecting collector. Then just let the market sort out what the prices should be. The collectors of the present are doing collectors of the future a favor by examining, classifying, recording, and preserving as much information as possible about as many coins as possible without treating any coin as "not worth the effort."
