The microscopic scratches make much sense, and a good reason for me at least to leave the high value numismatic coins alone....

But like Ed, on a simple piece of 1 oz. silver that is always just gonna be worth a few bucks beyond spot, why not make it look nice, it will still sell one day if need be....

I see folk biding on the ugliest piece of pure silver you could ever imagine on ebay all the time, stuff I would not touch with a ten foot poll, yet if it has 1 oz. of pure silver in it, somebody is gonna fork out 35 to 40 bucks for it....

That's exactly why you need to examine all older date morgans and silver coins that look in to be in better condition. a percentage of people out there will always been looking at Bullion coins as just that, a piece of metal with very little regard to the date. Some are investors, some are collectors.

I'm an avid collector with a huge interest in the history behind the coin. I love the fact that a coin has possibly over 100 years of wear from the people of those times. A shame a bit of Tarn-X destroys that.

Does it? I'd be willing to bet that 99% of potential buyers out there could not pick out the 3 of 10 coins so treated.
