<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Leadfoot, post: 180547, member: 2972&quot;]Seeing that I consider ANY dipping overdipping, I&#039;m good with &gt;75%.&nbsp; <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>Seriously, it depends on the series -- my sense if you define it the way that you do, is that for classic coins the number is around 75%.&nbsp; As many moderns haven&#039;t toned to require a dipping or have a high enough value to make doctoring profitable, they are far less likely to be problem coins.&nbsp; For some series -- trade dollars, seated dollars, and large cents come to mind -- the number is well over 90%.&nbsp; For some other series, say Mercury Dimes or Buffalo Nickels, the number is likely closer to 50%.</p><p><br /></p><p>Just my unscientific thoughts based upon the dealers and shows I frequent...Mike[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
