<p>[QUOTE="Dafydd, post: 26344532, member: 86815"]Good point. Issue over here is that the majority of coins are raw, grading is the exception unless they turn up via Heritage who grade everything. TPG does nothing for me except allow me to buy "details" coins cheap because I buy what I like in the look of a coin not someone's opinion and often than not crack them out because people over here know that a 400 year old coin has had something done to it at some time. My enquiry was conserving which is a completely different ball park, I have never had a coin conserved or bought one and I didn't want to blow hundreds of dollars to see no improvement. I don't know what the stains are on this coin or how to remove them so wanted to learn as I don't like them. I know one thing, if I do anything it will be called cleaning , artificial toning or whatever but if the grader does something that will be OK and probably not mentioned.</p><p>Too old to worry about strong answers only trying to learn what can be achieved. If nothing can be, it can stay raw as I prefer that anyway.</p><p>I like your John Wooden quote, I had never heard of him.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
