<p>[QUOTE=&quot;V. Kurt Bellman, post: 3031440, member: 71723&quot;]I&#039;m referring to the intentional antiquing of a silver piece, which arguably is what the OP has shown us. I also own a couple of silver pieces with intentional antiquing applied. It was &quot;hot&quot; around 1970. One is from the now-defunct Reading Coin Club and the other honored the Ephrata Cloister, and was done for the also now-defunct Ephrata Coin Club. Both are .999 silver when you GET TO the silver, but there is a &quot;finish&quot; artificially applied to both.</p><p><br /></p><p>In a DIFFERENT way, my ANA exhibiting &quot;gold medal&quot; is .999 silver with a gold finish applied.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
