Falcon, thank your frank opinion. I agree with it.
For a circulation coin, how could daily usage, put them into your pocket with your keys and other coins, handle them with anything from sweat to ketchup on hand, forget taking out from pocket for laundry, all of them are less harmful than cleaning? How could a coin survived all of them still have some value but become worthless after cleaning?
I feel it's not a logic thing talking about cleaning. It's more like a taboo or religious things -- we are not only talking about the real damage cleaning harm to a coin, we think the cleaning itself is evil and no matter what it real did on coin.
For the two coins I posted here, even now I know they are cleaned, I'll still treasure them and never be stupid enough to retone or renaturize it. The reason is simple: I didn't see really damage on it.
