<p>[QUOTE=&quot;medoraman, post: 1702257, member: 26302&quot;]Like Doug says, it depends. Thing with a cleaned or messed with coin is you had better be prepared to wish to own this your whole life, since to sell them can be a nightmare.</p><p><br /></p><p>Price depreciation will totally depend on how it was &quot;messed with&quot;. Old cleaning but now retoning? Not as much. Whizzing? Muhc more of a discount. Tooling, filled holes, etc? Yeah, maybe worth 20% of a clean example.</p><p><br /></p><p>This is why Doug cannot give you an answer sir, its the DEGREE of how badly the coin was messed with, and the PERCEPTION of the buyer as to how badly this degrades a coins desirability, that will determine the value.</p><p><br /></p><p>Having said that, I am fine with problem coins. Maybe its because almost all ancients would be classified by US collectors as &quot;problems&quot;. Anyone having a &quot;problem&quot; 1793 Chain cent with AMERI. please let me know. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie8" alt=":D" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
