<p>[QUOTE=&quot;George8789, post: 1535106, member: 36392&quot;]Havn&#039;t seen one of these threads in a while, don&#039;t know why since they&#039;re really fun. I&#039;ll start with mine, My first bad expierence with a coin shop was actually my first time I ever set foot in one! I was intrested in buying a *Peace Dollar and a a Walking Liberty Half. So I specifically asked the guy who worked there if he had a Peace and a W.L. in AU condition, both coins looked really great, all shiny and everything, almost could see my &quot;polished reflection&quot; you might say. Well I happily paid for them and left. For the next 2 weeks I visited the same shop and picked up 3 more Peace&#039;s. As days went on I learned more about grading, and spotting cleaned coins, well turns out the 5*coins I bought from that shop were all heavily heavily polished. I like the way he told me to hold them by the edges so I wouldn&#039;t ruin its &quot;luster&quot; I have never returned to them, and have since traded that overpriced junk silver into mercury dime junk silver at a different shop. I know some of you will say it&#039;s my fault for not knowing, well I agree it was, but it doesn&#039;t change the fact that he completely lied to my face and ripped me off several times. Any of you have stories?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
