[QUOTE="tenbobbit, post: 4630708, member: 95247"]I missed this thread somehow, only just spotted it. [USER=57700]@Aurelianus[/USER], you have raised a very good question. Your question did not get a direct answer but, if you read between the lines and blow away the smoke, it is there. ( you were 100% correct ) Fake sand patina is perfectly acceptable on its OWN as long as it is not attempting to hide POSSIBLE tooling or damage, Barry then went on to admit that it is pretty much impossible to know what is underneath said fake patina :rolleyes: At no point have i seen a denial of said practice using Fake sand patina as the only qualifier, lots of lurking in the grey area ;) It is very difficult to get an honest or straight forward answer when money is involved, too much waffle about nonsense for my liking. Just my thoughts. p.s. Did you buy the coins from either agent A or Z ?[/QUOTE]
