<p>[QUOTE=&quot;tonedcoins, post: 1079680, member: 25155&quot;]I see your point &quot;do as you please with your coin&quot;, however, many people that do clean, whizz a coin say that it&#039;s for them, a purpose to lets say &quot;preserving&quot; it and that they wouldn&#039;t sell and if they did, they would be honest and mention it. But would they and do they when it is up for sell?</p><p><br /></p><p>There are many (clearly noticeable) coins of this kind sold all over different sites and quite frankly, not many people admit to doing any cleaning or whizzing on the coins. </p><p><br /></p><p>I have sold coins before with the description saying &quot;This coin has questionable colors and I believe it to be artificially toned&quot; and guess what happened? I got messages stating the coin was NT and or that I was ATing the coins. I said to myself &quot;if I did such a thing, why would I admit to it? Maybe I&#039;m just too honest or something, I don&#039;t know but I wouldn&#039;t like anyone to get something that was altered in any way. </p><p><br /></p><p>Many people on the bay (for example) never state this on their listings. I don&#039;t like or support coin doctoring or cleaning practices but when I think a coin is not NT or questionable for that matter, I am one to say so and try my best not to even acquire them unless they look descent and I had to take them along with the rest of the lot (never bought from ebay or any site). </p><p><br /></p><p>I have also seen many sellers (known ones) who do admit to it, whether the coin was consigned to them or is from their own collection and these are the people I admire as coin collectors.</p><p><br /></p><p>So a question to Doc U Mint. Do you trust everyone who cleans coins that they will actually admit to cleaning or whizzing them when it comes time to sell?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
