<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Metalman, post: 23442, member: 1454&quot;]The only way to be sure that the coin has not been cleaned is by hands on examination under magnification, </p><p><br /></p><p>If your not sure ,, ask a lot of questions of the seller, for online buys, find an online dealer that deals straight up and try to buy as much as you can from them exclusively, two things happen when this is done ,service improves, and peace of mind is achieved at least for the most part.</p><p><br /></p><p>for a collection a few cleaned coins are inevitable in most cases, but the price paid for the coin should reflect the condition, </p><p><br /></p><p>Last week I bought a cleaned peace dollar ,,, I paid 7.00 for it, the seller who was not a coin dealer, but happened to have a few coins, was asking 27.50 for it, 1922-S about a 61 or there abouts, but I needed it or rather wanted it to fill a slot price was right ,coin needed in the slot, cleaned, personal collection not for sale or resale, no big deal.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
