[QUOTE="jimmy_goodfella, post: 15132, member: 919"]i think cleaning a mint state or near mint state coin is wrong. but i cannot possible see anything wrong with cleaning a dirty looking circulated coin, a coin that is very very dark and hard to read. surely any cleaning is better than that, whats the point of a coin you can hardly read because of crud.and considering about half the coins out there are in this state i cant see any reason not to clean then if it enhances the overall appearance.if there wasint ever a reason to clean a coin then why do grading services and others do it professionaly. And what is professionaly surely they just mean a simple unharmfull way to do this.Something that anyone could learn so why dont people want to say how they do it. these guys learned i bet through trial and error,or someone that had allready learned told thiem.I think this is just what people here are wanting to know i know i am. so how does a professional clean a coin whats he use,how does he use it.It aint hard its just protectionism. no-one wants to tell others how easy it is to make there living[/QUOTE]
