<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Owle, post: 2233789, member: 22004&quot;]The problem with &quot;cleaning&quot; is metal loss; impossible to put the genie back in the bottle, as it were.</p><p><br /></p><p>I have heard they even use MS70 cleaner at NCS; and clearly they have botched numerous jobs, I have a friend who was steaming about how they butchered his Trade dollars, of course there is no recourse afterwards, just a steep bill.&nbsp; They called me recently due to an NGC submission that had a coin with residue...ICG would offer to do the job gratis they are very good about that.&nbsp; And Skip Fazzari is quite good at it.&nbsp; It is all about money.&nbsp; &quot;Market acceptable&quot;?&nbsp; Don&#039;t make me laugh. NGC and PCGS have plenty of coins in straight holders that cause the tongues to wag--big time!&nbsp; Personally I would rather have a Barber half that is presentable with a little wear and some cleaning rather than the butt ugly Barbers I have seen in NGC holders where someone artfully toned the coin dark.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
