<p>[QUOTE=&quot;medoraman, post: 7441792, member: 26302&quot;]OP, if it is pure black, it might get body bagged by the tpg as being corroded. If matte black it definitely should, as it is most likely corroded. Short of that, I believe color, if judge natural, should not add or subtract from the grade. The TPG is supposed to be judging the coin underneath. I have seen pretty dark MS68 classic commems, and white 62&#039;s. It is not supposed to matter. Historically the reason so many collectors hated dark coins was it can be hard to judge if it was improperly cleaned if it has heavy color on it. Myself, I like color, but prefer lighter so I can still see the design.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
