<p>[QUOTE=&quot;calcol, post: 5220637, member: 77639&quot;]What you should do to a coin to prepare it for a TPG depends on the condition of the coin.&nbsp;&nbsp; If it’s a coin obtained from a mint or one that has never been out of mint packaging, you probably should do nothing unless there is an obvious problem.&nbsp; You are likely to do more harm than good.&nbsp; Same goes for a coin that you are going to crack out of a TPG holder for submission.</p><p><br /></p><p>TPGs will remove coins from mint packaging or a slab for a fee.</p><p><br /></p><p>For other coins, a dip in acetone or other appropriate solvent is a good idea if you know how to do it properly.&nbsp; Advisability of any other restoration or conservation depends on problems and expertise.</p><p><br /></p><p>Finally, carefully follow the instructions provided by the TPG for flips, labeling and packaging.</p><p><br /></p><p>Cal[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
