Didn't say it was natural toning. But then I hope neither of us are quite ready to be slabbed just yet anyhow...
What was the mint issue price again? Edit: never mind, it's just that clicking is hard. $54.95.
Now, now. Taking the silver from 0 to +1 is "oxidizing" it, whether the thing it's combining with is oxygen, sulfur, chlorine, or something else....
Buying 100 culls at $1300 (if you can), then selling them at $1700 in one batch on eBay (you can), nets you $200+ if you've got a store. You might...
Clearly, the only thing to do now is to spend another minute posting to it. :rolleyes:
Not on the top right. Maybe on the bottom left; the picture is too fuzzy to be sure. I've studied a lot of blurry photos of these coins, lit...
And if you'll re-read my one-sentence post, you'll see that I spoke only about two particular "fakes". I said nothing to step on your peripatetic...

Yeah, or any other kind of acid and two dissimilar metals. They used to tell you to use silver dimes and copper cents. Now, they tell you to sand...
If toning a coin in a way that's market acceptable is this easy, I think it's a sign that we should reconsider the "naturally-toned" market, not...
Not to run the thread off the rails before it's even started, but... really? Storing a Morgan indoors, without applying any chemical mix, counts...

Ticket agent: Can I see your boarding pass, please? Poster: Sorry, let me dig it out from under these pipe bombs and machine guns... Ticket...
Waiting to find out what, with bated breath -- partly because I'm really interested, and partly because I don't like breathing nitrogen oxides. ;)
