You need to understand something else. When it is done correctly, and by someone who knows what they are doing, it is impossible for anyone,...
Yes, it absolutely is possible. Not only that but it is and has been done many, many times.
Many years ago J D White and I designed a coin, I did the obv, JD did the rev. It was minted in both copper, (as seen below), and silver....
Yes, and they always have. But there was a time when they did not advertise these services like they do today. In the early days of the TPGs you...
And it still is. The issue causing the confusion is nothing more than the misuse of terminology. The word "clean" has been incorrectly...
I'll be the first to acknowledge that pics can be very deceiving, so of course it's possible.

The same rules for proper storage applies to those as it does for any other coin. Place them all in hard plastic holders. Place them all in an...
Correct, damage is damage and it doesn't matter how, where, when, or why it occurred. The only thing that does matter is that it is there ! And it...
It's absolutely damaged and should never have been given a clean grade - let alone a 66 ! And its not just the rev, the obv is damaged too.
No, it commonly forms on silver and gold as well. All it takes are minute traces of copper, whether it was intended to be in the alloy or not....
To Wax or Not to Wax, That is the question?? I'll just say I wouldn't recommend it and let it go at that.
Yeah, that poor horse has probably been beaten more times than any other horse ! And there are countless numbers of threads and posts on the...
