GrapeCollects Pillar of the Community United States 8938 Posts	Posted 07/15/2021 08:56 am Quote: Good job! I really think that people get all up in arms when a coin is improved. This coin looks great (well for a Ben, all Ben's are ugly). I would believe that 50% or more of all 100 year old bright as new coins were "treated" Most likely. If done right, you'd never know and it only helps the coin (removing PVC and haze in this case). If done wrong it only hurts (cleaning). As to the all are ugly, I had a few part of this sub even YOU might admit are nice, those I'll post shortly. Report this Post to the Staff

While I would never try this myself on any coin of value, it's something I'll probably play with on some junk coins I've got. Member of SPMC, FCCB, ANA and ANS.

GrapeCollects Pillar of the Community United States 8938 Posts	Posted 07/15/2021 3:27 pm Absolutely. Martin Soliano at Golden Eagle in Laurel, Maryland. I'm not sure what he charges as he's been kind enough to do the work for me at no cost in the past. Report this Post to the Staff
