<p>[QUOTE=&quot;TommyP, post: 2652577, member: 80814&quot;]All coins were cleaned. Call them conserved, cleaned, or any other &#039;conditioning&#039; adjective but it&#039;s cleaning. Has been since the beginning of time. By the way, your coin isn&#039;t totally ruined and has plenty of the original value. I think the &#039;oh no don&#039;t clean them&#039; proponents could use a drink to mellow out. Cleaning is bad. Conserving is good. They&#039;re both the same. We should label all coins cleaned but we don&#039;t, do we? They should all have labels &#039;badly cleaned&#039; or &#039;well cleaned&#039;, or &#039;properly cleaned, or &#039;improperly cleaned&#039;. The whole topic is deceptive and ridiculous. Next time you go into your local coin shop, listen for them using compressed air in the back. Guess what? They&#039;re &#039;cleaning&#039; coins.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
