You have two options: Hit it really hard, or rub it with something rough. That said, 'modifying' coins in order to improve their appearance or...
Dang, that would really wake you up. Glad I didn't see anything like it either, lol.
http://www.cointalk.com/threads/cointalk-history.107867/#post-889208 This thread is a good place to start. A lot of events are listed in the OP.
This tread right here taught me everything I know about editing coin pictures. I highly recommend it to anyone who has ever -even for a second-...
I agree with the above. I have a pretty good example of this in the form of a Colombian exposition half dollar that exhibits mint luster clinging...
By the way, if my math is correct, a trillion dollar one ounce platinum coin would have a ratio of about 1:699300699
It was all hypothetical, but according to wikipedia the idea appeared during the 2011 budget crisis. It gained more traction during the 2012...
How about the proposed 1 ounce platinum 1,000,000,000,000 dollar coin? It may not have made it past being hypothetical, but would smoke just about...

I mailed my scholarship today, at 4:20 PM. I am within the acceptable dates, as it had to be postmarked today. I cut it awful close though...
There is a strange pattern on the obverse that practically has AT written on it. I never could persuade the camera to show it, but perhaps I will...
I personally use my state numismatic association's website. Their calendar works well for me. They even go as far as listing shows in the states...
I guess you might like to see this one. It is a proof coin, and looks very AT to me. I bought it close to 2 years ago now, when I didn't have a...
XF45? It seems rather backwards where the wear is. I want it to be AU simply from seeing the feathers on the chest of the eagle look so well...
