<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Drusus, post: 359516, member: 6370&quot;]Also...If you watch the antiques road show, they also say if it is conserved by a person who knows what they are doing, the price often goes way up...Nonabrasive cleaning of a coin is something every collector should know...if they dont then they can throw more money to another person to do it....probably a collector who took the time to learn and now can make money doing so. </p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>In the end, leaving dirt and grime on a coin is not good and it should be removed, any seriously damaging corrosion should always be dealt with quickly and...its just personal opinion...the black dark tone should not be allowed to take over the coin. So cleaning is important...dont do it if you haven&#039;t experimented and learned the right way. But IMO all in the hobby should learn and methods should be public knowledge.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
