<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Lehigh96, post: 642545, member: 15309&quot;]Boss,</p><p><br /></p><p>Weimar White is not a nut because he thinks that toning is damage.&nbsp; He is a nut because he thinks that dipping toned coins is a perfectly acceptable solution to cure that &quot;damage&quot;.&nbsp; I don&#039;t doubt his scientific methods or results.&nbsp; However, to say that dipping coins is a numismatic cure, falls in the realm of the lunatic fringe.&nbsp; And he gave and example of one toned coin that successfully hid a previous cleaning from long ago, but fails to mention the thousands upon thousands of coins that are now problem coins due to over dipping.</p><p><br /></p><p>Regarding Doug&#039;s tone, he is who he is and he is not going to change.&nbsp; He speaks his mind and does it bluntly.&nbsp; I respect that even though I don&#039;t always agree with him.&nbsp; However, on this topic, I think he is right.&nbsp; Although I don&#039;t share his opinion in an absolute sense, I think that attempting to improve a problem coin is almost always an effort in futility.&nbsp; I won&#039;t criticize your desire to attempt it, but I stand firmly behind Doug&#039;s decision to ward others away from following your path.&nbsp; You do it because you enjoy it, others will do it because they think it will work.&nbsp; In that respect, Doug&#039;s advice is invaluable IMO.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
