<p>[QUOTE="rzage, post: 1145160, member: 14070"]A lot of coins have been dipped , with the naked eye you can't tell unless they were over dipped , or dipped many times . Dipping is cummalitive , each time a part of the surface and some luster are removed . Look at the GSA morgans , they were stored in bags , some in contact with the sulfur in the bag are toned , most in the middle look almost blast white . So a 100+ year old coin can look blast white without having been dipped . But any dipped coin can be seen if you have an electron microscope .</p><p>Rusty[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
