<p>[QUOTE="quartertapper, post: 452629, member: 16104"]My opinion on cleaning, for what it's worth is a matter of what the coin is worth and what you're planning to do with it. If a silver coin is worth little more than the silver in it, go ahead and experiment. If you have a high grade 1928 peace dollar you plan on getting slabbed, DO NOT even attempt a cleaning. They can spot any lack of luster, or the slightest amount of wear or swirl marks. Even if you do get it slabbed as"cleaned" it will probably be worth only 60-70% of an uncleaned coin in the same grade. Hope this helps![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
