<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Art, post: 652053, member: 568&quot;]Many many coins have been cleaned. In the late 1800&#039;s and much of the 1900&#039;s it was common for coins to be cleaned by very avid collectors. Many coins were literally stored in cabinets and were wiped periodically with a soft cloth to &quot;keep&quot; them clean. A huge percentage of the Half and Large cents have been cleaned in one form or another. In fact it is common for collectors of these coins to brush them to remove dust and and such.</p><p><br /></p><p>My net on cleaned coins is that I don&#039;t care. I don&#039;t collect for investment and if I like the coin than it&#039;s fine for me.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
