<p>[QUOTE=&quot;nesvt, post: 25274, member: 1749&quot;]PCRDNADAVE, GDJMSP, JODY526 - thanks for the feedback.&nbsp; I&#039;ve gained more info since joining this forum a week ago than I have in several months of self-study.</p><p><br /></p><p>I was going to take a photo with a digital camera and post.&nbsp; I&#039;m getting too many reflections and changes in color on the scanner.&nbsp; I decided not to... not sure if you can tell from from a photo if they were cleaned.&nbsp; I think someone with experience (like yourselves) physically need the coins to examine.&nbsp; It would be feasible for the packager to want them to look their best.... and clean them before putting in the package.</p><p><br /></p><p>How can a newbie learn more about cleaned coins?&nbsp; I found this <a href="http://www.users.globalnet.co.uk/~wwcoins/cleanedcoins.htm" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.users.globalnet.co.uk/~wwcoins/cleanedcoins.htm" rel="nofollow">site</a> , but it was high level.&nbsp; I was looking for info and possibly pictures of whizzing, polishing, dipping, re-toning, etc...&nbsp; for silver coins.&nbsp; Not necessarily a &quot;How to avoid cleaned coins for dummies&quot; book.&nbsp; I just want to know what to look for in the future.</p><p><br /></p><p>Thanks again.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
