<p>[QUOTE="Boss, post: 539716, member: 15110"]Thad- I was rereading these posts on "cleaning" and had been meaning to comment on this post even though it is now "old". The rubbing coin between the fingers put what appears to be permanant finger prints on the coin's reverse. I figured it would, but took your advice a little blindly (no blame here- I accept that all decisions are mine to make and I have to judge what seems right to me). I therefore, due to frustration with this coin sent to NCS. I had some weird experiences there, but I am certain nothing I have done has helped, and this looks like the type of coin they can help. Just want to let you know FYI. I lightly wiped the coin after the rubbing. This has to be done extememly lightly as it so easily scratches the coin showing fresh copper which then has to retone and now you have a new scratch which happened here too.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
