<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Lehigh96, post: 1081512, member: 15309&quot;]It is comments like these that make me have no faith in your ability to fill the role of numismatic instructor. </p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>Really?&nbsp; The photo I see shows repeating bands of yellow-magenta-cyan.&nbsp; The color progressions are correct and this coin doctor has gotten very good over the last year.&nbsp; His older work was easy to spot as AT.&nbsp; His current work shows indicators of both NT and AT.&nbsp; He over saturates his photos in order to hide the fact that the coins are AT.&nbsp; Over saturating is basically an equalizer of AT and NT making it almost impossible to discern the difference because of the photo enhancements.&nbsp; However, viewed in hand, the AT would be much easier to detect.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>But there are other indicators of AT on this coin that the seller can&#039;t hide.&nbsp; First and foremost is his record of selling AT coins.&nbsp; Why someone with a reputation of selling AT coins would brand their photos with their own E-Bay seller name is beyond me.&nbsp; In addition, his coins all have two common characteristics of AT coins: they are all raw, and they are all common/inexpensive.</p><p><br /></p><p>The coin is AT.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
