<p>[QUOTE="adric22, post: 1471163, member: 38146"]I can't explain it. I just tried it again and it came up with a lot of results just as you say. But I tried it twice before posting and there were zero results. I couldn't believe there wasn't already a thread on this, I guess my gut feeling was right.</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>I won't argue with you on that. You are right that is what "other people" or maybe even "most people" prefer is a coin that is <i>not </i>cleaned. Just like most people prefer cars that <i>are </i>cleaned. But what I'm saying I just don't understand why people are like that. Given the choice I'd rather have a clean coin with some minor surface abrasions than a dirty coin that I can't see the surface. Sort if like I'd rather have a clean car with some scratches in the paint than a car so dirty I can't see the scratches. But as I seriously doubt I'll ever buy or own any coins that are valued for their rarity over their bullion value, it is sort of moot with me.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
