<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Shoewrecky, post: 1078189, member: 22350&quot;]to a degree I will agree with you.&nbsp; I would have no problem if someone cleans a low grade coin for the purpose of learning how to properly detect cleaned/whizzed coins. To clean coins to help &quot;sell&quot; the coin is an bad act and should at all costs be prevented. For those sellers that do it, then shame on you. I really enjoy looking at &quot;clean&quot; and well perserved coins and think how lucky I am to have close to or over a 100 yr old coin in my hand and how it survived for such a long time. On top of that how it is possible to stay in such great condition for such a long period, just amazes me.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>As for melting coins...if they(the coins) are low/no grade to the point where pretty much everythign is worn on the coin then sure go ahead and melt it. </p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>This is why I try to buy coins in certain grades...to enjoy them the way they are <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
