[QUOTE="pete165, post: 368146, member: 11308"] Hi Old Mate This is solid advice. Having been a coin collector for many years I have been advised by my coin dealer as follows: We can detect a cleaned coin, if it has been cleaned it will devalue the coins value. All coins should only be washed off any soil,dirt on them by soaking in water and them rubbing them with your fingers only to dislodge the dirt and grim. He then gave me an example. He shoed me the samples. It was a key date half penny. 1923 value uncleaned $2900 value cleaned $1200. Enough said. [/QUOTE]
