[QUOTE="GDJMSP, post: 4060744, member: 112"]Well, maybe MS70 was used on them. But here's the thing, copper coins can and do tone, and tone completely naturally, to various shades of blue and or purple. And a whole lot folks find them highly desirable ! My point here of course is that short of using what they politely call a "coin sniffer" there is no way to tell one from the other. Yes, but it's difficult at best and a multi-step process. That may work, but the "while" is almost certainly going to be a looooooong while. And not one I would recommend because the coins would also be very likely to become contaminated with things you'd much rather not have them be contaminated with. My question to you would be, why bother when the toning may well be perfectly natural to begin with ?[/QUOTE]
