<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Oldhoopster, post: 8409913, member: 84179&quot;]Are you serious?? Nobody has offered proof?&nbsp; Go to any coin show or web site and look at slabbed coins in &quot;details&quot; holders.&nbsp; The hobby is littered with coins that have noticeable hairlines, impaired luster, scratches, and dull surfaces all from improper cleaning.&nbsp; Many of these hair lines are visible to the naked eye</p><p><br /></p><p>The majority of those cleaned and dipped coins were subject to much gentler cleaning than an ABRASIVE pencil eraser.&nbsp; Would you clean your car with sandpaper?&nbsp; Basically, it&#039;s the same thing.&nbsp; Maybe you could try the pencil eraser on your car and show us some proof.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>No big deal if you want to play around with a couple of cheap wheaties, but to make the statement that nobody has offered proof is completely irresponsible as a hobbiest.&nbsp; You ABSOLUTELY need to do more research on the subject before making such unfounded statements.&nbsp; If you haven&#039;t found any proof, your head must be under a rock.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
