Which post to be clear?

 

What if its been encapsulated? How would you know?

 

LOL....you're a good sport old friend.

 

Just messin' with ya.....

 

And not to start a new topic but maybe question in which you were trying to infer would be, "Which school did you attend". I could have been vague in my answer to, "where did you go to school"? and said America.

 

*maybe the... I think I got a weak key on the board. But maybe I'm just a public shcool get by.

 

SUNY

I went for one day. I'm a quitter. Haha. I'm a carpenter by trade and a city employee by politics.

 

Let me turn the question back to the OP. Would you “clean” this one? Pretend the slab isn’t there.

 

Tottenville HS, SUNY dropout, cheers.

 

Now that is an answer.

 

Which leads me to my next question...If I did "clean" it, could I get a 67?

 

I wouldn’t count on it. “Details, cleaned” would be more likely.

 

I'm not so sure. Note I quote "cleaned" There is only one word currently to describe the process. I would rather call it preserving but I think there is trouble distinguishing the two. What If I posted my proof quarter here, sent it to grade, broke it open "cleaned" it, and then see what happens when I send it back. ???

 

Not a danged thing wrong with working with your hands. When I got out of school I wound up driving a truck for thirty years. I loved working out in the elements.

Now, back to subject. When I was a lad, my father showed me an 'Oregon Trail' commemorative that he had cleaned with Tarn-x. Yes it was bright and shinny, and at the time I admired it, with its' mercury like appearance. But at that time I lacked the knowledge or experience to appreciate the original 'skin' of the coin. Anything original about the coin had been wiped out. It was nothing but a brilliant disk exhibiting no character at all. It lacked life and luster, but to a youngster, it was appealing. would you ever consider 'cleaning' something like this?



Don't mess with original skin........

 

Best thing posted today.

 

This is undesirable toning to me. If it could be cleaned, w/o leaving dull, washed out surfaces, I'd say go for it. Conserve that sucker.
