Excellent video, thanks! I'm fairly new to coin collecting, and I've been fooled several times The only time I got the last laugh was when I put a ridiculously low bid on a set of Chinese gold coins, just to see what they ended up selling for To my great surprise, I won the auction! brbrWhen I got the set, the coins looked perfect, each in its own capsule nested in a velvet-lined, intricately inlaid wooden case, with lots of signed & sealed documents attesting that they're genuine They weren't of course, no one would sell some $2000 worth of gold for $35, so I knew they were fake They did look perfect, but the weights were off & so were the dimensions of the coins I notified eBay about this fraud, and got my money refunded & also got to keep the fake coins, so that made me happy- and I've used that set many times to demonstrate to others how clever the fakes can bebrbrMostly I collect Australian pre-decimal coins, and there I've only been fooled once (that I know of,) when I got a 1937 Crown that was actually steel with a silver layer It looked magnificent, and I'm really glad I only paid $25 for it, but we've all got to be very very careful when buying coins Recently I saw another video showing a handful of Mercury dimes, all were fake, so it's not only the high-priced coins that are phony, it could be any of them Thanks again, that was most informative!

So its possible PCGS or NGC can numerically grade a cleaned coin? i have a 1932 S quarter NGC graded AU 53 its shiny with a lot of hairline scratches and slight discoloration near the rim i was wondering if it may have been cleaned yet still numerically graded Comment from : JxT1957 |

Do you have a vid on pennies like this Comment from : Bobby Maurais |
|
Makes no sense whatsoever And I’m referring to the appraisers, not Daniel Example, a 1970 Plymouth Barracuda with codes identifying it as a Hemi Cuda is worth just as much as just a frame and title as a compete car Nobody cares about paint, it’s a matching numbers game Also, if a coin is “cleaned” there is no reason to write the word “cleaned” on the tag lmao, just reduce the overall score People pay good money to get their coins graded, there is NO reason to make it harder for them to sell by writing that If the coin was cleaned, reduce it by a few points, and let the buyer and seller argue as to why Their job is to just grade the condition of it, I mean a non worn 1909 S VSB Penny is worth the same cleaned as an uncleaned in the same condition The more you wrote the word “cleaned” the more the hobby is going to go bye bye, and your writing yourselves out of a job Maybe a new coin grader needs to come onto the scene who understands this Comment from : Street Lethal |

great video ty for some tips I've been buying coins from coins tv bu wheat pennies and some just look like they have streaks going all the way through the coin like it has been cleaned but I dont know for sure Comment from : William Smith |

Hello Daniel Have you ever seen a coin "Cleaned" with a machine, high pressure steam like gold jewelry is cleaned with??? It is very gentle Are cleaned coins worthless?? How many coins since the beginning of coin collection have been cleaned, what percentage compared to non cleaned coins Do we now buy only MS coins What do people do who own cleaned coins, get rid of them??? I still say its eye appeal!!!! Thanks Much Comment from : charles |
|
That 1902-S Morgan in PCGS AU-58 looks polished That grader needs an eye exam! If this is the best PCGS can do, they're no better than any other grader unless it's SGS Comment from : Emil Phoryew |

I don't buy Coins on Ebay because they have to Many Scammers and Ebay won't Do Anything about the Scammers I go to Loco Dealers to Examine the Coins up Close brThank You, I learned a lot from Your Video Very Scary Comment from : Lip stick |

Will laser cleaning harm the value of a coin? Since no chemicals are used, how can it hurt? Comment from : Timothy Knight |
|
I'm gonna piss people off lol but so what I think there is way to much hypocrisy when it comes to the forbidden cleaning of coinsThird party grading does it dealers so onI have gone through the course myselfYou can't tell me at times it's Def neededI think the grading process and the manipulation of value on coins due to third party grading as well as some elitist attributes when it comes to this hobby as well as the profession ticks me offYou take a look at ancient coins the must be cleaned oh sorry restored Ssshhhhhh lol I guess I'm speaking for those who simply enjoy collecting and to have the grading company's decide how and if my coins will have diminished value all the while using the same practices is kinda like today's politics Comment from : Thomas Newman |

Man, if PCGS can put AU-58 on that 1902-S, how much confidence can we place in the grading services? Daniel here has shown coins previously, graded by the major services, in which the opposite problem seemed to exist: coins in "Unc Details" holders (due to cleaning) with no apparent cleaning That bothers me more and shakes my confidence It leaves one asking, "Did they goof, or do I have some blind-spot when it comes to identifying cleaned coins?" Too bad the grading services don't give the customer a verbal blurb in MP3 or WAV as to what the grader has noticed as he grades the coin Currently the customer gets back a coin in a holder with a grade that sometimes seems to lack all understanding, and there is no explanation Comment from : Joseph Campagnolo |

Wow I found that out myself yesterday I cleaned a penny that had a very brilliant shine to it and luster ,but I thought that it could be brought out more but after I clean the coin it was a different color the luster that it first had was not there so I guess it lost that first thin layer of color that you were talking about Thanks for the advice Comment from : RavCar COINS AND MORE#Coins🪙 |

|
If it was ever touched by a human hand it should be considered as permanently tainted and melt value Too much black coin magick if that's not the rule to follow Comment from : Three Dog parody satire |

Sounds like a dealer scam to say oh I think the invisible ridges on your coin look cleaned lol Comment from : Three Dog parody satire |

I know you have seen a little of everything, when it comes to coins and the knowledge is greatly appreciated by many ! I was going through some pennies and found quite a few that had different colors of paint, and colors of grit along with shiny ,like nickel cobwebs all over them Well the grit tastes salty, and they are stamp marks on the substance, along with letters etc etc !!! From the 60s thru 2004 so far Thanks for any info Comment from : Floyd Lovell |

Hi🤪You have enlightened me on coin collecting in so many areas I didn't even know existed or should be something I should be watching for I'm very grateful that I ran across your site Your detail is so much more than anything I've watched so far Never even heard "plating blisters" before brAnyway, I've been saving all sorts of coine since I was a kid, that looked abnormal in my eye or stood out for some reason At this point my question to you is is there any kind of a cloth to use just to brighten them up or are you not supposed to do anything? Comment from : Denise Kay |
|
Honestly I know I don’t have the skill to properly clean a coin so for the sake of future generations I leave them in the slab as they arebrbrHowever I am guilty of practicing cleaning on common coins in my pocket change Just to practicebrbrI even have some junk proof unc coins and unc coins that are great for practicing cleaning high value coinsbrbrI’ve messed up quite a few 1991 Proof Lincoln cents with cleaning practice but they’re just so common it doesn’t matter Comment from : Blake |

Good video I learned thanks Comment from : Ch Ha |

Just watched this specific video for God knows how many times I sure don't know and I still can't tell cleaned from not Too many maybes, mights, could be, it's possible one thing you're sure to find, frustration Comment from : Scottie B |
|
This has helped me so much! I debate whether or not a coin I'm interested in is cleaned or not It is sometimes really difficult to tell Your tutorial has really informed me on how to better spot a cleaned coin! Thanks for this! Comment from : mel s |
|
Thanks for making these videos, I try not to ms70 clean nor dip any of my coins however I have As only being 3 years into learning how to grade and judge wear/details of coins your videos are extremely helpful Thanks 😊 Comment from : Chad Stone |
|
well I don't want my coins covered in dirt to the point of not being able to see it funny how everybody says a clean coin is bad yet the grading companies clean coins under the name of "conservation" If pcgs cleans my coin its still a cleaned coin regardless of what you call itbrthe clean coin arguement etc is all crap your video shows exactly how stupid the don't clean your coin arguement is Comment from : me notyou |
|
I enjoy your informative videos Daniel even though I still make mistakes on my local coin purchases I am learning I keep my mistake purchases and label them as learning experiences on some they were both cleaned and polished to death the loss of details is enough to make you ask why did they destroy a beautiful coin Comment from : Kristine Bailey |
|
that 02-S is HOME FREE Comment from : sherrie bryant |
|
My question is how do you differentiate between cleaned and just circulation wear Circulation also makes luster flat Comment from : Bingo77 |
|
I probably have a bunch of cleaned Morgans Thank you for these videos So much to learn Comment from : Brandon Munson |
|
Exceptional video, Daniel! This can apply to any coin/composition, but now I've got to inspect my grandfather's Morgans for cleaning My Pop Pop never would have cleaned them, but my MOTHER will polish anything silver that can't run away! 😳Have learned so much from you! Thanks for all you do! 🤗🪙💰🪙💚 Comment from : VV King |
|
So if pay PCG to clean your coin it’s called restoration but if you restore your coin it’s called cleaning, got it! Comment from : Pete Misc |
|
trust your well Thanks for the info presented however I don't think I understand or agree with the perspective on restoration not being considered cleaning when in fact it is The coin must undergo cleaning to be restored it would appear to be a double standard used purely to generate more services or for a coin dealer sales i say this based on a video I saw in which a coin dealer admitted to cleaning coins in order to do just that He went on to say that the dipping process he uses is the same that grading companies use and he was practicing this long before grading services were available albeit with different chemicals and processes He went on to explain that once coins reflect light better than before is the desired effect, the more luster the better Lets apply common sense a circulated coin which I believe in general is usually more sort after, is passing from hand to hand, different fabric pockets, different types of leather/ and other types of wallets/hand bags paper rolls and so in contact with natural/unnatural residues of salt from perspiration, acids both natural and unnatural as well as a cocktail of many other chemical residues not to mention other coin metals and surfaces Over time coins wear affecting the original stamped surface and also develop patinas which again is either as a result of chemical reactions or built up residues or both and coin storage/exposure to air and moisture The variables involved are actually immeasurable which is why there is in fact so much variations in finish So in my humble view just because over time there has been an acceptance of what is usual from what is known I humbly submit that there are in fact instances which don't fall into the norm but are genuinely uncleaned coins I've been collecting now for 42 years and lost coins to natural deterioration from chemical reactions even though sealed in plastic from the very first day acquired and others which are the complete opposite having gotten more beautiful over time with amazing and unique toning & patinas I have never graded a coin and after researching it, now very hesitant to do same as it would appear to be a double edged sword with a dice roll I am at the point in my life where I'm finally ready to liquidate my collection but finding it hard to even consider paying for grading to be rejected on a perceived anomaly because the person or persons haven't seen one like it before or such is unrecorded in the fraternity what are your thoughts? humbly and respectfully Comment from : azad ali |
|
I'm really surprised that you said nothing about the different cartwheel effect with a cleaned coin! Very easy to detect with a large coin like a Morgan Dollar! Comment from : David Rudolph |
|
I'm getting a lot better at this, but you're right, it takes experience I can spot a cleaned Morgan or Peace dollar a mile away, no matter how many filters the eBay seller uses ;) Comment from : Ty Smith |
|
Thank you, I appreciate this lesson I recently cleaned a few of my coins to see how they would turn out Being a bit ignorant to the game gives me a pass 🤪 I made up for it by purchasing an MS70 Morgan Comment from : j P |

Hi there I have been watching you on YouTube I enjoy your videos I know you get so many questions about the same things I’m only wondering about some quarters and dimes that I have left to my great granddaughters when I die they are from the 20s and 30s Some dates worn off quarters My question is do you think they might be worth anything I know nothing about this stuff I have helped my son save all kinds of old money all his life but I still know nothing Do you think you could speculate on my comment Would appreciate it Thank you Comment from : Brenda Edge |
|
Why do they clean the coin if you don't ask them to and if it depreciates the value? Maybe I'm not understanding something here Comment from : Jennifer Downs |
|
Just started watching some ur vids Is it ok to wipe them off after handling ? Mayb with a soft cloth but not scrubbing or anything Comment from : William Day |

Use white diamond and it will pass pcgs grading Comment from : mg heslep |

Thank you! I've got an eye for details and the ones that have been cleaned stick out to me My Mom gave me one that is maybe the same age as the ones you had graded and I saw right away that it looked different Comment from : BuzzingBee123 |

Not sure if you'd have the time Daniel but I'd love to send you 2 error coins I own as to identify what is going on with them The absolute weirdest errors and are not altered past minting as far as I can tell I wish I even had a hint of what to call these They have me stumped and I really don't think my LCS knows US coins like you do I haven't seen anything like these two coins in your videos if my memory serves me correctly I'd be willing to pay all postage ofcourse Comment from : Doodle Mavrak |
