<p>[QUOTE=&quot;jtlee321, post: 8511458, member: 73983&quot;]In my opinion, I would rather own a coin that is claimed to be AT vs Cleaned.&nbsp; If I felt the coin looked attractive with the artificial toning, I would enjoy it.&nbsp; If the coin was cleaned and I could see the wipe marks, they would bother me every time I looked at the coin.</p><p><br /></p><p>Ugly toning has a much better chance of being properly removed, than not.&nbsp; If the toning method had eaten away at the surface of the coin below, it should be apparent for the most part by muted luster.&nbsp; So the chances of recovering an AT coin to a market acceptable one are orders of magnitude higher than a cleaned one.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
