Message:: [QUOTE="tonedcoins, post: 1345368, member: 25155"]You are correct when you say "The long term effects of chemicals have yet to be seen.  If they have  penetrated the paper, there is no way to be certain they may not lead to  more rapid deterioration of the paper". However, I simply don't see it as a malicious thing to do because paper is paper and if not preserved (restored), then there won't be many to collect, if any left. I do agree with ronterry on the fact that the seller is selling these notes without the mentioning of any work been done to them. It would be nice if they did. And even so, I don't think it would hurt the "value" that much because I still think it is a great work done to restore them. Duke Kavanaugh: I can't believe I said this either. Me, as one of those who have been threatened for putting "coin doctors" out there, sued (they all lost) and all, would think this is ok to do, or at least acceptable IMO. ronterry: I sure didn't learn anything when you made that thread about "how to" AT coins, sorry. I did however, changed the way I think of you. I'm still ashamed at CT for kicking anyone who got heated on that thread for your doctoring. I did learn something from this thread though. I never took the time to check my notes for deep signs of restoration and so I started doing so now. Not that it will bother me really if I did find one in my small collection but good to search them and learn even more.[/QUOTE]
