<p>[QUOTE="craton, post: 121, member: 667"]I have heard, but never tried, that if you take a silver coin and soak it in bleach that it will darken the coin. It certainly doesn't look natural though. I don't know if there are certain degrees of darkening with this process but it seems that there should be. I have a bust half that is EF and it is BLACK. It is certified by the OLD PCI as being cleaned. My best guess is that it was cleaned and retoned in bleach. </p><p>Jason[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
