<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Neal, post: 25699886, member: 43872&quot;]I don&#039;t doubt that many are dipped, but it is quite possible for 100-year-old silver coins to be naturally blast white.&nbsp; When the big rush came in 1963 and the treasury was emptying its vaults of silver dollars, I was working in a bank.&nbsp; We got in a bag with many blast white uncirculated from 1880 and 1881 (there were none in the bag younger than 1881, coins from 1878-79 and some from 1880 were mostly VF-AU).&nbsp; I&#039;m pretty sure the treasury didn&#039;t bother to dip them.&nbsp; Properly stored, these would still be white today.&nbsp; I was only 13, but I bought as many as I could pay for.&nbsp; I sold them in the 1970s.&nbsp; Wish I hadn&#039;t, but I thought I needed the money.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
