<p>[QUOTE=&quot;TypeCoin971793, post: 2768043, member: 78244&quot;]I have seen dozens of six and seven-figure coins, and have held a few.

Apparently the market does not like hearing that if a coin has wear, it is not MS, and if a coin has been cleaned, then it is not problem-free, regardless of how rare and special the coin is. Bill Fivaz was the first to point this out to me. I think he has seen a few more coins than the both of us combined, and I trust his opinion. What I have seen in many slabs confirm his statement.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
