<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Boss, post: 614158, member: 15110&quot;]Those who said it was cleaned, I assume mean conserving is cleaning. This coin was never chemically cleaned by my grandmother. She never touched that coin, and new nothing about cleaning. Most of her coins had grime like this and they never, ever left that album. I would never sell this coin. I didn&#039;t like how it looked and felt very confident in my technique. I will repost after it tones down. If I never told anyone I did the above, and someone else posted this and said &quot;grade this coin&quot; I think everyone would have said EF whatever and &quot;great coin&quot;, &quot;wonderful&quot; etc. I think some said it was &quot;cleaned&quot; because I told you all what I did. I suffer from over honesty, but I am trying to increase people&#039;s knowledge of things they may not understand or are familiar with. I am not promoting this technique except on low value coins. Don&#039;t take this wrong. I have done this A LOT. Do this at least 2-3 x/wk. Once the coin tones down I will repost. My 1911 S already has toned down. I will wait a few more months and resurrect that post with new photos.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
