<p>[QUOTE=&quot;longnine009, post: 35165, member: 1886&quot;]Baileyl: Sometimes clean coins especially dipped coins are&nbsp; AU&#039;s that were dipped to remove the discolor at the rub points so they can be passed off as BU&#039;s.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>Whenever you&nbsp; remove dirt or green crud you also expose the area under it and it may well have a different color than the surrounding area--making it obvious that it was cleaned. This is the pandora&#039;s box that pops open when you clean coins.&nbsp; One problem may be mitigated only cause a new problem. </p><p><br /></p><p>I think your probably right that bright coins attract more buyers. But I never understood why.&nbsp; Old coins are suppose to look old.&nbsp; <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie8" alt=":D" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
