<p>[QUOTE=&quot;GDJMSP, post: 3630590, member: 112&quot;]Kanga everyone is welcome to have their own personal opinions on dipping. But facts are facts, and dipping is and always has been accepted as a legitimate and non destructive method of cleaning. People have been dipping coins for over 200 years. And literally tens of millions of coins in NGC, PCGS, ICG, and ANACS slabs have been dipped and given clean grades. </p><p><br /></p><p>Simply put, dipping is not and never has been considered to be a harsh cleaning method. Dipping is the original and most commonly practiced method of conserving coins that there is. It has saved more coins than one could possibly count from certain destruction.</p><p><br /></p><p>It should also be noted that some of the most lustrous coins that any of us know of or have ever seen - have been dipped ! Yes, if and when dipping is done incorrectly, it can destroy the luster. But when IT IS done correctly, it reveals the beautiful underlying luster that could not be seen prior to the coin being dipped. </p><p><br /></p><p>Bottom line, the vast majority, I would go so far as to say 95% of the entire numismatic community disagrees with your opinion on dipping.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
