<p>[QUOTE=&quot;snapsalot, post: 1406362, member: 37085&quot;]I believe you are pointing out the flaws in the general numismatic ideals as of late.

I would MUCH rather have some nice high end AU cleaned coin for the same price as a F-12 uncleaned of the same coin. It is rediculous how so many flock to the idea that if some guy 200 years ago spit on his coin and rubbed it with his thumb a few times to clean the dirt the coin is forever worthless. Yet if some guy charges you 50 bucks to dunk your coin in a vat of acid its money well spent?</p><p><br /></p><p>Well I would rather pay 50 bucks for a AU quality coin that was lightly cleaned then 1000 bucks for a VG-8 of the same coin uncleaned any day of the week TYVM.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
