<p>[QUOTE="saltysam-1, post: 1365438, member: 23368"]If you are a collector who wants to see the value of your coins stay equal or improve overtime, for $30 you can satisfy yourself and get a definitive answer to this question: Clean one coin with an eraser. With no explanation, send it in to one of the better grading houses. (That's your $30) See what happens when it comes back. If it comes back graded without any negative conotation on it, you can post it here for all the world to see, and prove your point. If it comes back with any reference to cleaning, doctoring, tampering or just a details grade on it, no need to post it. You can remain anonymous and pretend it didn't happen, so others' thinking can remain intact and there is no embarrasment. But privately you will know the answer. I suspect the post will eventually die, without this picture posted to it.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
