<p>[QUOTE=&quot;GDJMSP, post: 2916891, member: 112&quot;]The copper coins are being dipped after they have turned red brown or brown. And yes you are correct they are MS coins. Red is not a designation given to circulated coins.</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>Does the bright color of untoned silver exist underneath dark or black toning ? Of course it does. The proof of that is the millions of dipped coins you see. Copper is no different, under the red brown or brown toning exist the original mint red color of copper.</p><p><br /></p><p>As for that color being AT, when a silver coin is dipped is that color AT ? No, of course it isn&#039;t. So why should copper be different ? </p><p><br /></p><p>The reason that most people believe that copper cannot be successfully dipped is because they think copper looks to be a weird color, an unnatural color when it is dipped. And I&#039;ll be the first to stand in line and say that if you dip it the same way that you dip silver coins - it does look to be an unnatural color, a weird color. I agree with them 100%.</p><p><br /></p><p>You see, you&#039;re basing your comments on the assumption that copper is dipped, turned a weird color, and them somehow turned an acceptable color. But what if you don&#039;t dip it the same way you dip silver coins ? What if there is a different technique, a technique that not everybody is aware of ? What then ?</p><p><br /></p><p>A couple hundred years ago when people first started dipping silver coins in an effort to remove unsightly toning do you think for one minute that they had immediate success ? Of course they didn&#039;t ! They had to go through a learning process, they had to learn how to do it right, how to do it successfully. Throughout history there has been a thousand things, a million things that people thought you simply could not do. But they only thought that until somebody figured out how you could do it. </p><p><br /></p><p>And the evidence, the very existence of all those red copper coins, tells us that somebody has figured it out.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
