[QUOTE="GDJMSP, post: 6626491, member: 112"]Ask yourself a very simple question eddie - but first a few facts. 1 - copper is the most reactive metal there is that we made coins from - meaning it tones faster and easier than all other metals we used. 2 - more collectors than you can count tried for over a century to find any storage method they could that would keep copper from toning - they never had any success, and still haven't. 3 - even the TPGs will not guarantee color designations for copper because, just like everybody else, they're all too aware of what I have said above. So, given those facts how is it, what possible explanation is there, that could explain how so very many older copper coins there are that exist in original mint Red color - untoned in other words ? There's only 1 possible explanation - the coins are being successfully dipped. As for this - :muted:[/QUOTE]
