<p>[QUOTE=&quot;DonnaML, post: 4514199, member: 110350&quot;]Thanks. I hope you know I wasn&#039;t serious about the miraculous nature of the transformation!&nbsp; So this could happen -- changing from very blue to silver in color, comparing the first and second set of photos I posted -- in the space of a few months?&nbsp; Presumably not so very long after the seller did something to the coin to make it blue in the first place?</p><p><br /></p><p>And there&#039;s no question at all that the particular dealer does something to silver coins to achieve that blue tone, whether through application of liver of sulfur or some other process. All you have to do is look at all the other identically blue-toned silver coins he has for sale or has sold in the past.&nbsp; And see how intensely bright and patchy and artificial-looking the blue tone was on my coin.&nbsp; Not to mention the same dealer&#039;s admitted practice of applying a fake desert patina to bronze coins, which has also been discussed in the past in this forum.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
