<p>[QUOTE=&quot;BlueVelvet91, post: 2900134, member: 90907&quot;]As a Steel inspector for Toyota, I inspect the integrity of all Camrys made.</p><p><br /></p><p>He was asking, why does it have a pink hue. Well, as anyone who knows metal. Silver doesn&#039;t turn pink, at it&#039;s oxidation level raises it turns dull grey and blackish, not pink.</p><p><br /></p><p>But copper does turn pink at it&#039;s lowest oxidation level. Out of the 656,900,590 Morgan dollars that were produced from 1878 through 1921, I&#039;ve heard that there are probably in the ballpark of about 10,000 (God only knows if that&#039;s true or not though) that have a very, very, very slightly higher composition of copper in it and with the copper nearer the outside of the coin.</p><p><br /></p><p>That&#039;s why some Morgan&#039;s get a Pink hue and other&#039;s never will in it&#039;s lifetime. But some people love illustrious looking coins, some love toned. In my humble opinion, from what I have personally seen there are a lot more people that love illustrious looking coins vs highly toned.</p><p><br /></p><p>What I mean by illustrious, isn&#039;t unnaturally polished coins either. Just ones with little wear and in really good condition.</p><p><br /></p><p>Only really serious collectors, who do know there stuff like the highly toned coins. Ones who know the difference between the &quot;doctored&quot; and naturally toned coins.</p><p><br /></p><p>Anyways, I greatly appreciate everyone&#039;s opinion on it.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
