1) "I work for pennies. I'm a hobo, a singing hobo, not a stabbing hobo..."

2) Avoid all "chemical cleaning solvents" which are corrosive, volatile and flammable as you would a voracious brain-cell eating demon.

3) 1920 SM. Cent - cleaned and quenched in secret formula...

4) Obverse = demand, reverse = supply but the edge will ultimately reign supreme in all around honesty.

5) reserve = sellers insurance, and private bidding and poor photos = red flags. But lets not get off topic

6) The word deceive does not include falsity as to matters having no pecuniary significance, or statements unlikely to deceive ordinary persons in the group addressed.

7) I'm still not convinced, whether it be the grading or the "judgement" of the obverse; but I have heard of cronyism & nepotism mixed with shills.

8) You must at some point or time handle the coin in the state you found it when you found it...

9) If you happen to be fortunate enough to find any coin that you wish to preserve for yourself or for monetary gain the coin must be free of any particles that will damage it while in your possession or in transit to a grading authority

10) We're not handling diamonds or uranium here ...

11) My copper method; pure Vaseline. Appy with clean soap free hands (rub with thumb in circular motions (about 1 min). Remove excess and store accordingly.

This method for copper will simply assure you the highest grade attainable for the coin [the coin can only be graded honestly,professionally ONCE.]

12) Pat dry and as a precaution place the coin on a warm scratch-free surface.

13) As a final safeguard against the elements on an ungraded copper coin, PURE VASELINE is sound advise. It can be removed easily if needed with heated distilled water.

14) It's that simple; now think about it before you post excuses on how to not sharpen your skills in a very delicate profession.

15) Supply and demand, no formal grading necessary in the free market regardless if it's genuine or accelerated...

16) Make silver stacking not only a hobby; but a necessity.

17) Well, you got your harp and you got your guitar, and now it appears you got some sheet music.

18) Quote me so as to not cause confusion...

19) I speak for myself. I like them in high grades - oh and beware of the dancing fruit ...

20) Your response is illogical cameron93, hypercritical and unprotected...
