<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Ken Dorney, post: 2590918, member: 76086&quot;]Very difficult to tell from a photo, really.&nbsp; Many base metal coins are repatinated.&nbsp; That is the nature of the business.&nbsp; I currently have several coins on my desk which are EF but look like crap patina wise.&nbsp; If I sell them as is they would realize $10, but repatinated they will sell for $150 easily.&nbsp; What to do?&nbsp; I dont alter coins in any way.&nbsp; I pass them on.&nbsp; I just listed some sestertii on Ebay in this manner.&nbsp; High grade, but ugly patinas.&nbsp; They will likely realize pennies on the dollar.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
