[QUOTE="desertgem, post: 647105, member: 15199"]Hi Red Tiger, I would be very surprised if it wasn't dipped at least once. I think the tarnish on the edge of the devices is the remnant of that. But at least who ever did it, didn't go overboard and try to make it very white and remove the cartwheel luster from it. My intention wasn't to fool anyone, just to leave the end result open. I did indicate it would have a TPG result, but I didn't want to just be a grade thing, but also to see if problems would be suggested by anyone, and certainly ICG could have missed problems or considered them market acceptable, so I wouldn't say posters were mistaken. It was good for me also, as I have looked at this coin much much longer then I did when I first obtained it. I think this has made me sharpen my focus. I certainly appreciate the time people took to look it over. Maybe I will try it again as it is always interesting to me on grading, especially when it is my coin :) Jim[/QUOTE]
