[QUOTE="Leadfoot, post: 263776, member: 2972"]You are right, without knowing the exact location and state of this coin since its minting, there is no way to know for sure. That said, the look of this coin is consistent with an original coin with original skin. I have seen several circulated silver pieces from this time that were known to be original (i.e. traceable provenance), and they have a similar look. But you're right -- original is a relative term and without proof it is difficult to be 100% sure this coin was never dipped in the past...Mike[/QUOTE]
