<p>[QUOTE=&quot;dougsmit, post: 8206199, member: 19463&quot;]In this case, wax (crayons???) was melted into the cut and tooled without disturbing the metal. I regret not having taken a photo before I discovered the &#039;situation&#039;. I suppose you could do the same thing more permanently with solder or fill it with gold as we see on that group of aurei making the rounds currently but wax of an appropriate color might work until someone touched it.&nbsp; The hobby is full of really nice, honest people and some crooks out to make a buck by any means necessary.&nbsp; Why so many collectors and other dealers tolerate and patronize that last class in their midst is wholly beyond me.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
