<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Nerva, post: 2762372, member: 87761&quot;]Not to labour the point, but added paint can be removed too - though use of solvent and abrasive may cause damage to underlying paint. That seems to me to be the same case. We all know that the patina on a coin is part of the coin&#039;s appeal and value. It&#039;s not the same as the original physical character, I agree. But the fact that the dealer we&#039;re talking about has chosen not to advertise that his patinas have been added, despite agreement with Vcoins, indicates that the market also prefers original. I accept of course that your honest description of added patina is a different case.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
