[QUOTE="davidh, post: 2799748, member: 15062"]None of you know me, my education level or what professional experience I've had which allow me to form an opinion on whatever subject I'm commenting on. You might assume I don't know what I'm talking about, but consider the possibility that I just might. Think what you want of me or of my opinions but when a snap judgement is made without any consideration of facts then I'll often call you out on it. In the past, coins have been shown here with battered edges and the instant remark is that it's a "Drier Coin", i.e., one that's been tumbled in a drier. That is complete and utter nonsense and I, in the past, challenged (without takers) anyone to deliberately recreate such a coin in a drier or tumbler. In the case of the subject coin of this thread, the immediate comment was made that it's alteration was the result of being in "an acid environment." Further comment opines "acetic [acid?]". Wow! All I can say at this point is that if anyone can duplicate what happened to that coin using any acid of their choosing, and provide before, during and after pictures, then I'll not only post an apology as my final post but I'll also never post any comment again. Hate Nelson, dislike me - another snap judgement without any regard to facts. Either way, life goes on.[/QUOTE]
