<p>[QUOTE=&quot;GDJMSP, post: 1912225, member: 112&quot;]And that&#039;s it in a nutshell right there. Does it really make it look better ? </p><p><br /></p><p>You see most people associate &quot;better&quot; with bright and shiny, so they define looking better as clean and or bright and shiny. But when bright and shiny is accompanied by fine scratches that cover the coin - it does not look better to an experienced coin collector. To an experienced coin collector dull and dirty and not covered with scratches looks better.</p><p><br /></p><p>It&#039;s kind of like if you had vintage car and it was just covered with dirt, road grime, and dried salt deposits from driving on winter roads. So to make it look better you take a dry cloth and start wiping it down. But when you are done the dirt etc may be gone, but the car is covered with fine scratches everywhere because of the way you cleaned it. And it does not look better.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
