<p>[QUOTE="Tallpaul000, post: 101827, member: 204"]The more lustrous the coin, the better it will handle the dip. Repeated dippings will strip all luster out eventually. I would experiment on some toned jfk halves, plenty of those. Advice here is correct, usually takes a few seconds, you can see the toning dissolve before your very eyes!! I have dipped some very ugly toned 64 halves and they turned out beautiful, but they had good luster to begin with. TGP will grade a dipped coin, unless you go to far with it.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
