[QUOTE="Spark1951, post: 25273412, member: 90692"]I don’t have anything to show at this moment, but here’s what I think: The IHC appears to have been successful, meaning, you are “encouraged” to do [I]something [/I]to improve the appearance and you did, even if it goes against your pledge to avoid cleaning. I’d even say you cleaned it properly. And on the Peace example the same urge is there. At 1922 it’s not scarce, but you can’t not try [I]something [/I]to alleviate the discoloration. You know, in [B]my [/B]book, eye appeal coupled with condition are the first criterion used to assess a coin when you first see it, and I think a lot of members would say that is a true statement. So if you don’t cause further issues, and end up restoring or preserving the coin, I’d say you’re doing your due diligence and still living up to your ideals…imo…Spark[/QUOTE]
