[QUOTE="Lehigh96, post: 2117472, member: 15309"]Your own post is contradictory. If scads and scads of unethical jerks had the ability to fool the TPGs with AT creations, they would have already caused at least a partial collapse of the toning coin market. You keep saying how easy it is to make an AT coin that will fool the TPGs.

[B]The[/B] [B]fact is that it is not easy to fool the TPGs with AT coins[/B], you can't do it, and you know you can't do it. If you had the ability to do it, I would be looking at photos by now. And as someone who has been active in the toned coin market for over a decade, I will tell you that toned Morgan Dollars constitute a majority of the truly monster rainbow toned coins and they demand bigger premiums than any other series of coin. Your exclusion of Morgan Dollars from this discussion is rather comical. Are you sure you don't want to exclude any other toned coins. How about tab toned Commemoratives? Btw, dipping coins is an acceptable practice in the eyes of the TPGs. Telling me that 100% of your dipped coins have been graded is not impressive, no matter what acid you are using to alter the appearance of your coin. I consider dipping "artificial untoning."[/QUOTE]
