<p>[QUOTE="stoster38, post: 1176814, member: 11827"]A couple of years ago I was in Mexico and bought a few coins from a relative. They were 4 silver coins from 1943 to 1968 so nothing too old but I liked the designs and did not pay too much for them. Unfortunately the coins were not stored well and had a good amount of dirt on them. I held onto them until I went to my local coin show where NCS/NGC were accepting submissions. I submitted the coins for conservation and grading. </p><p><br /></p><p>When I got them back I was amazed and what a good job they did. If I hadn't seen the coins in their pre-submission state I would not have guessed that dirt had been on the coins before. The cost was not inexpensive so it's not something I would use all the time but I hated to see the coins I bought in that condition so I decided to try it and I'm happy I did.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
