I have a promotional DVD for these pieces, which is a National Geographic Explorer episode, documenting the history of the SS Republic shipwreck and the salvage of the cargo. The coins recovered were restored to their original condition by NCS or the efforts were made to restore them to their original condition. Are they now considered to be "cleaned", technically, and would this ruin their numismatic value as far as grading them MS-60, for example? National Dealer, cdcda... Would you be willing to guesstimate how much dealers would have to pay for these pieces? Certainly not $999.00, would they? On the DVD one of owners of the salvage company says that he expects the gold pieces found from this shipwreck to command around $7000 per coin.[/QUOTE]
