no, it's not factually accurate. Huckster, yes, thief, no

Don't I have a tanning appointment at 4:30???
Matt and I will be there!
So you're suggesting that the 40% silver is to blame for the hazing? Not the environment, not the manufacturing process and not the packaging?
agreed, P&G, but storage includes the packaging and anything that is found as nearly universally toned as thse Ikes are would likely be packaging...
I think that Doug made the point that we should all note that the coins with haze are proofs and mirrored whereas the CC Morgans are circulation...
It stands for Deep Mirror Proof Like, Cheech9712, It's a coin that looks like a modern proof but was struck as a circulation strike coin.
good point on the proof vs MS coins and haze, it's relevent. I don't believe the haze to be prolific on all modern proofs, but mostly 1970s proof...
which leads us to the red "velveteen" or the boxes, which are different than the GSA boxes.
here's my thinking... the coins tone in a circular pattern from rim to center. Is this because the plastic touches the coins at the rim? or is it...
after hearing this many times, I have to ask what in the package is causing the toning? Is it the "brown box"? Is it the red plush "velveteen"?...
No reason that I can see. the coin looks real
no question, I really didn't think about the context of value then vs. now
never a bad time for tacos... oh, and MS-63
The coin belongs to C-B-D and he may do with it anything he wishes. It's kind of petty to suggest that he's a bad person for selling his coin....
and finding the matching steel cent from that die pair would be an exercise in futility
I was always told that the hazing came from improper rinsing at the Mint. I also believe that the packaging for GSA dollars and brown Ike Dollars...
Experiment, Bman!!! You learn a lot when you experiment!!!
