Ruben, Have you even read the things that you post. The majority of the cointalk members have agreed with me during your tirade and most of them...
A fantastic question. I have to admit that I don't really know the science behind the toning rate for dipped coins. I will say that the oxide...
Oh, I knew he was baiting me, but it almost became fun to see how many others I could get on his ignore list. I still don't like that fact that...

Too many insults. I lost count!
Uh oh Richie. I think you are about to get put on the ignore list with that one. :thumb:

Toning is the formation of an oxide layer on the surface of the metal which is the first step of corrosion. Dipping a toned coin completely...

Here is one with corrosion (toning) and a semi-proof like finish. [IMG][IMG] :D
Wow, I never noticed that. I also want to thank you for making a civil and productive post. Congrats!
Oh wow! I just found a new game. How many members of this forum can I get on Ruben's ignore list. This is going to be fun. Sorry 50 Cent, you...
That is because it is the ultra rare steel obverse variety of the Peace Dollar.;) For about the 5th time, the term rust only applies to ferrous...
Sorry, I wouldn't grade them separately, but I think they would look cool in an NGC multiholder. I don't know the cost, but you can find that...
MS/PF70=Dead Horse
I also agree with the grade, but that is very lustrous for an MS61. The coin is definitely more attractive than your average MS61 but I don't...
