<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Murphy45p, post: 3461390, member: 96005&quot;]My goal is to complete the set with each coin showing most all the details of the design.&nbsp; In some cases, I may prefer a cleaned coin to an original coin, particularly if the original coin is very darkly toned.&nbsp; <b>I do not clean coins</b>, but I will say, if I am choosing between a black original and a cleaned coin of the same grade, I&#039;m probably choosing the cleaned coin for this set.</p><p><br /></p><p>There are different types of cleaning.&nbsp; Some have an artificial glow about them, some have numerous scratches in the field from an abrasive, I don&#039;t purchase those.&nbsp; Others are marked &quot;details - cleaned&quot; and my own ability is not sufficient to determine it had been cleaned at all.&nbsp; Those are good enough for me in this album.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
