Nobody. He wasn't talking about flips, he was talking about 2x2s. It is pretty easy and fairly common for the staples in other 2x2s to rub...
I agree. But then I'm not judging, I'm merely pointing out that the logic doesn't follow.
When it comes to toning John, the primary thing that we have to understand is that nothing is carved in stone - except that there will be toning....
Possibly, but that would merely be the cause, it doesn't change what it is, the beginning stage of toning. And, it's always equally possible there...
As I said, not even that changes the point I made. Which was - Are those coins that only worth $1 worthy of being in your collection ? If they...
Again correct. And many also believe that coin holders and slabs are airtight, but they are not. There is no such thing as an airtight coin holder...

Yeah, I get it, individual coin holders are "expensive and bulky". But lemme ya a question. Pretty much any you've ever bought for your...
The problem is with the wording that companies use in their advertising. People reading that wording may or may not understand what the company...
Threads like this contain a very important lesson, a lesson that all collectors should, and need to be aware of. I think many of them are, but...
That is correct, you do have to dip it properly. And yes you do need to know what you're doing. My point Randy is that you can't just say that...
That's the because there is no real difference, toning and tarnish are exactly the same thing. Toning is simply a euphemism for tarnish. What's...
Not necessarily. Many, many times, dipping a coin to remove toning will increase it's substantially ! I once watched a guy at a coin buy a rare...
There are thousands different reasons for haze. Haze is nothing more than the beginning stages of toning - that's all it is. And it can be caused...
Gonna getcha for that ! :p
I can't find my pics of the FUN Show right this second, but this is pretty much what any big coin show looks like. [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH]...
