<p>[QUOTE="SilverDollar2017, post: 3248923, member: 94711"]I think we can all agree that learning to tell whether a coin has been cleaned is not a matter of simply reading one article. It takes experience as well. The article written by TypeCoin provides useful and insightful information about how to differentiate a cleaned coin from one with original surfaces. However, neither the write-up created by him, or the one that I did earlier, describe<i> every</i> possible way that a coin can be cleaned, and neither are they supposed to substitute for experience. But these posts have information that is important and relevant to coin collectors, especially those new to numismatics. And that is important - to educate new collectors and set them on the right track.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
