[QUOTE="Maxfli, post: 3662539, member: 69089"]Just because there's lint on the coins doesn't mean they've been polished with a cotton cloth.

If they've been rubbed with a cloth, you should be able to detect some fine scratches. We can't be of much help with regard to these other coins until you give us an idea of specifically what they are, hopefully with some photos included. If you're using an iPhone, iPad or a Mac, you can crop your photos in about 10 seconds or less. (Don't ask me about non-Apple products — no clue.)
