<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Lee, post: 869948, member: 3963&quot;]There is a coin store in town offering to buy silver dimes at a minimum price of $1.10 each.&nbsp; Since many years ago, while I was out of town, my wife &quot;cleaned&quot;&nbsp; (what I then thought) all my dimes with bleach,&nbsp; I thought that I would ask if this might be the only thing to do with them. After soaking in olive oil (don&#039;t ask) for 30yrs they were totally black but after 3-4yrs in a leather coin purse, the black has started to flake off.&nbsp; I also found a coin album with other dimes that have not been &quot;cleaned&quot; with the bleach.&nbsp; The dimes range in date from 1917 thru 1954. All the dimes, even the bleached ones, the dates &amp; mint marks are readable.&nbsp; So what do you think, should I just sell them for the $1.10 each?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
