Message:: [QUOTE="GDJMSP, post: 2991484, member: 112"]I think it was in one of the first posts I made in this thread but I mentioned that the Ikes were a different alloy than the Morgans - that 80% silver vs the 90% silver is what I was talking about. But there's even more to it than that. Think of modern Proofs, you have both clad and silver, and the silver in them is 90% silver, just like the Morgans. However, both versions (clad and silver) of the modern Proofs develop haze while their business strike brethren (also clad) do not. My point is this, there's a whole lot to think about when you are talking about this subject - lots and lots of little details. And all those details, I prefer to call them variables, are what explains the differences in how the coins tone and or don't tone. Even when you have all the similarities thrown into the mix as well.[/QUOTE]
