<p>[QUOTE=&quot;USCoinCollector42, post: 2890176, member: 75732&quot;]I got a single half dollar role at my bank back when I was still naive about numismatics. The second I opened it, there was a beautifully toned 1964-d kennedy half dollar. I estimated its grade using the pcgs photograde feature, and concluded it to be at least ms-65. I was told by a couple people (who have no experience with coin collecting) that the coin had an ugly color and would look better it&#039;s &quot;natural&quot; color. I used some silver cleaning cream (I forget which brand) and gave it a nice rub. Reminiscing, I realize that this was a beautiful coin with great toning. It would have likely commanded at least $500 at auction... Just a fun little story about what <b>not</b> to do with coins.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
