<p>[QUOTE=&quot;GDJMSP, post: 647318, member: 112&quot;]The point Tom is this, if a coin is a problem coin, then anything you do to it is not going to increase the value. So why not sell it as is and get a problem free coin. There is a difference between problem coins and dirty coins. Dirty coins are not problem coins, they are just dirty.</p><p><br /></p><p>However, one who is inexperienced or does not know how to properly clean a coin will turn a &quot;just dirty coin&quot; into a problem coin, the vast majority of the time, by trying to clean it. About half the time or more, even if you do know how to properly clean a &quot;dirty coin&quot; - it will still turn into a problem coin because the dirt was covering up the problem.</p><p><br /></p><p>Now you can call that opinion if you like, fine by me. But results say otherwise. Results say it is a fact.</p><p><br /></p><p>What I have always recommended and will continue to do so is this - buy a coin that you are happy with just as it is. If when you are looking to buy a coin you find that you are saying to yourself - <i>&quot;I can clean this up and make it look it better&quot;</i> - then walk away from the coin and look for another. Then you don&#039;t have to ever worry about it to begin with.</p><p><br /></p><p>Now if you think that is bad advice, well, then I give up. Because I really don&#039;t know what else to say.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
