I don't have a problem with people liking pretty, but they should be aware of the risk they are running. Some collectors know this and know the risks, but I would say many don't.

[QUOTE="medoraman, post: 1432934, member: 26302"]Great post OP. Textbook example of why toned coins used to be discounted, since there is no way of knowing what is under the tone/oxidation/corrosion. I don't have a problem with people liking pretty, but they should be aware of the risk they are running. Some collectors know this and know the risks, but I would say many don't. A non-toned coin everything is knowable, toned coins they just aren't. Btw did you play around with different dilutions of the dip and different application lengths? A dip can do more harm than good if too long. That I believe is your next step, learning how long or at what strength will work best for each coin. I am not saying I am an expert at this, but I know the real experts are very adept at this and it can make a night and day difference in results. Chris[/QUOTE]
