Nobody is disputing what you say happened. But it was definitely not the black rings that caused it.
They are completely inert regardless of color. And the black rings will not leave anything on your coins.
Neither, the intent is to sell it, for way more than it is worth, to someone who has no idea what it is. Do you realize how many people there are...
I don't know of a pic that shows an H. But just imagine, a T can hold a coin up to 25mm in size. An H can hold a coin up to 32mm in size. So the...
The pictures didn't create the marks or the scratch. They are there, on the coin. And other pics that don't show them as well aren't going to make...

As I said, it doesn't always happen, but it does happen. In other words, some turn weird colors and some don't. Do I know why ? No, I do not. But...
Jim explained it pretty well. But since you are a fairly new member, I spent over 40 years collecting US coins. Then I sold that collection and...
Can't be sure but it looks like 2 different things happened. 1 - some tiny specks of organic material were on the coin when it was holdered. (or...
Yeah and gold doesn't tone either, but it does ;)
Thanks, but no thanks. I no longer have a collection, nor do I collect coins any longer.

Oh c'mon now ! The guy on the left can still say - the big one got away ! [ATTACH]
But are they very rare ? Is it even possible for them to be rare ? I really don't see how. Consider, the coins with the miniscule doubling that...
