<p>[QUOTE=&quot;eddiespin, post: 24878674, member: 4920&quot;]Take two coins, same date and mint mark, in mint state condition, cartwheel luster and all. There are 4 Billion 2020-D cents, you ought to find two. Take one and rub the hell out of it with a soft washcloth, really shine it up good, then compare how the two reflect when you wiggle them a little under the light. Abuse it further, dip it in acetone and rub it, if you can&#039;t make it out from just rubbing. The most fatal thing in a cleaned coin is the removal of the cartwheel luster, and once it&#039;s gone, it&#039;s gone for life, and there&#039;s no restoring it. Do this a few times to get used to the look. It&#039;s flat. A corpse. Shiny, but without bounce. No life. And that&#039;s what luster is, it&#039;s the life.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
