But is there a way you can tell me that might help me determine is it is polished as opposed to mint luster? Since I can look at the physical coin itself. Because to me at least, the coins shine looks just like the same shine if I were to look at a fresh 2010 roosevelt dime. But I just might not have the experience to differentiate regardless.</p><p><br /></p><p> I want to learn this kind of stuff anyway because I already am very wary of buying cleaned or tampered with coins. If I have a bad feeling about it I usually don't take it. I'm hoping I had the right feeling with the old guy I bought it from. He really seemed genuine and legit. I guess you would call the place a farmers market...I'm not sure what else it could be called, half of it is an actual market run by the Amish and the rest are small stores and antiques and stuff.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
