[QUOTE="900fine, post: 770722, member: 6036"]Yes. Which begs the question - where does one draw the line ? What is unacceptable harsh cleaning ? As with so many things in numismatics, there is no "hard science" law or universally accepted definition. Cleaning is a continuum, a sliding scale. What is acceptable for one is unacceptable to someone else. The key is to learn to evaluate surfaces and luster, then decide on a case-by-case, coin-by-coin basis.[/QUOTE]
