Is it popsicle the next big industrial will be problem coins brought back to life?

Why can't bad coins turn out good if they are handled and falsely altered to look good? Example? A cleaned AU is brought back to exaultation by wearing it down just a little bit. Holes filled that are undetectible? Rim filed that even the sophmore experts can't tale. That would be more dangerous and such an intrusion over counterfeit fakes.

    It's definitely popsicle.

    It's not just popsicle, it happens all the time and many end up slabbed as non-problem coins.

    It's like putting a cardigan on a stripper. If the coin becomes problem free for that grade thats very different than altering to a higher grade or counterfeiting. If an MS63 peace dollar had light staple scratches that got worn off and sat solid at VG20 its like the scratches never existed. I bet there are tons of coins in lower grade holders that had problems when in higher grades all thru time. How would you ever know?

    By the way not a bad topic to discuss considering you used a random word generator for the title.

    I think @abcde12345 needs to speak more clearly when using voice-to-text to create posts.

    Maybe contact Stephen Hawking's estate and see if they will loan you his voice synthesizer.....

    I think its very lickly popsicle that all circulated coins started out as ms and got worn down to their current steaks.
