<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Cloudsweeper99, post: 110471, member: 3011&quot;]The reason I ask is that I frequently see circulated Morgan dollars for many dates available in the $9 range that have been cleaned but otherwise look okay for circulated coins.&nbsp; There are also some $20 Liberty gold coins currently selling around $600 that have also been cleaned but are otherwise okay.&nbsp; The prices are lower than what the coins would fetch if they weren&#039;t cleaned, but aren&#039;t quite as low as bullion value, and I don&#039;t know if the discount is enough to make them interesting.</p><p><br /></p><p>I have to be careful because coins that have been lightly cleaned don&#039;t bother me at all.&nbsp; But I know that more knowledgeable collectors go berserk over any sort of detectable cleaning, knock the price down mercilessly, and would melt the coins before allowing them into their collections. </p><p><br /></p><p>If some of these coins sold at or below bullion value I&#039;d buy them, but they never seem to get that low, so I&#039;ve passed them up so far.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
