<p>[QUOTE="EyeEatWheaties, post: 977212, member: 26972"]Agreed, I hurried through that process I use for whizzed coins and took that shot midway through. On polished coins, it is my opinion, that they have to be microscopically etched in order get a patina to adhere to the surface. So yes, the coin has been further damaged however it is my opinion that with the patina it now has it has been conserved. I'll post another pic this weekend after I am done "conserving" it. BTW I guessed AT on your initial pic. </p><p><br /></p><p>Question on the coin in you avatar. I have several like that and I am at a total loss on why some toned like that when others didn't. It happened in a Dansco 100 album to couple random. I even have one in an Intercept round plastic holder that I noticed recently has went nuts during the last 5 years. So much for Intercept. ha!</p><p><br /></p><p>BTW- Please take this as constructive criticism, which you seem to be encouraging....
