<p>[QUOTE=&quot;medoraman, post: 1216864, member: 26302&quot;]1000% agree. If something is wrong with this coin, then I have 50 &quot;problem&quot; coins just like it, (100 if you count my bust halves). Toning is natural, protected areas show luster like they should, toning breaks in natural defined points of the field, etc etc. If the coin looks in hand like the photo, its a poster child for how a well cared for 150 year old coin should appear.</p><p><br /></p><p>IMHO, the coin may have been dipped once long ago, no way to know really. That goes for all coins of this era though, and this coin is about as nice as you can find in the market, and is highly desired by collectors of those series. If someone wanted a more &quot;natural&quot; coin, the only suggestion from me would be one of the darkly toned coins that appear sometimes, but those don&#039;t appeal to most people.</p><p><br /></p><p>Chris[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
