<p>[QUOTE="SilverSurfer, post: 902853, member: 21603"]The coin could be a key rare date, but if someone over dipped it in cleaning solution then the coin would be considered harshly cleaned and not carry any numismatic value at all, rare key date regardless. I think people lose sight of what numismatic value means. Cleaned coins carry NO, NO, NO numismatic value, regardless of how unique or rare they are.</p><p><br /></p><p>Sometimes it takes a trained professional with a magnifying glass to realize that the mint state key date coin you are holding has really been overly cleaned and that is why it finds itself in the "junk" silver bin.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
