[QUOTE="Al Kowsky, post: 4954342, member: 97383"]M.V., Orange Julius gave you good advice ;). Don't be too hard on yourself, the coin is not ruined, it's just impaired :p. In the future leave the cleaning process to the experts. The coin pictured below I bought for $150.00 knowing it was scratched, but didn't care because I was so impressed with the portrait :happy:. After owning it for several years I had the coin slabbed & put it in a Heritage auction, it sold for $480.00 :jawdrop:! [ATTACH=full]1190912[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1190913[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]
