<p>[QUOTE="GDJMSP, post: 972769, member: 112"]You could easy be correct. But what about all of the people who owned the coin before him ? You also have to remember that to most people there is absolutely nothing wrong with dipping a coin. More than a few knowledgeable people even consider dipping the right thing to do.</p><p><br /></p><p>Point is, that coin shows no signs of luster. That could be due to the pics, but you are pretty good pics so I doubt that. Also the color is all wrong for a coin of that age - it should be toned and it isn't. And if a coin of that age isn't toned then it almost a certainty that it has been dipped. And over-dipping would also explain the lack of luster.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
