[QUOTE="ToughCOINS, post: 25271157, member: 20480"]Old, naturally toned gold is less commonly seen because most gold coins traded in the marketplace have been dipped bright yellow. Judicious dipping is not considered cleaning by most, and seems to have been so widely practiced that I'd be surprised if any of the grading services would refuse to assign a straight grade to a gold coin that didn't look lifeless due to excessive dipping, and exhibited no other problems. Personally, I prefer naturally toned gold, but we're all different.[/QUOTE]
