Numismatists love a bit of filth…
Coin collectors like to see antique coins in their natural state of preservation, even if to the casual observer they look as though they could do with a good clean.
This is especially true for proofs, where even the most delicate cleansing can result in minute scratches appearing, significantly lessening the value of your investment.
More than 15% of coins offered to dealers are rejected because of improper cleaning.
