<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Gregg, post: 3156257, member: 90419&quot;]So it would be accurate to say that there aren&#039;t really (except in the rarest of cases) any 100 year old coins that are shiny that haven&#039;t also been cleaned, which means that the lack of a cleaned designation on my slab really means <i>&quot;no apparent damage from cleaning&quot;.</i></p><p><i><br /></i></p><p>I&#039;m okay with that - it just helps to understand some of the minutia here.</p><p><br /></p><p>It has recently occurred to me that I&#039;m not going to get good at this until I&#039;m willing to invest a significant amount of time looking at lots of coins.&nbsp; Some of the tells are so subtle and only become obvious by really studying the surface.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
