<p>[QUOTE="Just Carl, post: 695667, member: 4552"]There is a factor missing here and that is the price. Many times I've purchased cleaned, polished, etc types of coins due to the prices being excessively low. Coins, such as the 32D or 32S, with mintages of less than a half million, may well be worth purchasing if the prices are low enough due to such cleaning. Polishing coins are really difficult to tone down but cleaned coins left on a kitchen window for a few months makes the coin appear a bit normal looking again. </p><p>If you think about the ever growing population of people on Earth and the amount of them as coin collectors, any coin with such low mintages may not be available in any condition soon enough. </p><p>Example the population of the USA alone has exceeded 300,000,000 so imagine if only a fraction are coin collectors and each one wants that coin.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
