The Peacock IKES and Appalachian Jefferson Nickels are very special cases where a group of coins appeared on the market with similar toning...
I don't doubt you know of some guys who can occasionally sneak an AT coin past the TPGs. I don't remember threads on this subject lasting very...
No, I will not do either of those two things. I asked for specific names of the dealers who are supposed fences for coin doctors and said...
So it is okay to libel people who sell rainbow toned coins on this forum, but it is not okay to expose those who are creating artificially toned...
I guess it is too much to ask for you to provide us with a photograph of a coin that you have artificially toned that resides in TPG plastic?...
I clearly stated no excuses. You obviously know how to dip the coin and reverse the process, so lets see your AT work that is going to get graded...
That is complete garbage, the entire post. I know full well that some AT coins reside in TPG holders. I have some in my inventory, and my...
I wanna see the best AT coin you can create. No excuses! I wanna see a before photo, photos of your chem lab, and a photo of your AT creation...
And why shouldn't you parrot another one of Doug's fantasy facts. There is no coin doctor in the world who can recreate any pattern that he wants...

It isn't silly at all. Chinese counterfeits present a much bigger threat to numismatics than artificially toned coins. And if you don't think...
So let me get this straight. If a dealer specializes in Indian Head Cents, do you assume that he is counterfeiting IHC's? If not, why would you...
Do you think it got net graded because of the minor scratches on the reverse?
The photos are kinda blurry, the strike is kinda mushy, and the coin seems lackluster. Despite the clean surfaces, my initial impression was MS64.
Try diffusing your light source.
To my knowledge, the only way to retain the "T" or "W" designation is by mistake. NGC does not use the designations any longer and will remove...
How many lights are you using? It looks like you are using one light placed at 12 o'clock. You will have much better results if you use two...
Oh boy, an ethical coin doctor. Bold claims about your skills, how about you show us some examples of what you can do. Can you start by showing...
Separate names with a comma.
