[QUOTE="Pickin and Grinin, post: 3260775, member: 73995"]Hindsight is 20/20. Should have, Could have, but Didn't applies quite well here. We have all these conversations about AT VS NT. And the only thing that I am seeing is that you AT'd a coin knowing it was altered, even more susceptible to toning since it was recently dipped. Then threw it in a Dansco that is known for toning coins?? So which is it. Cause accidental is the biggest line of BS I have ever heard from you. You purposely AT'd a coin then put it on the market. My thing is that what you did sets on the innocent side of what collectors have to wade through to find acceptable coins. I have no need to ask if the coin has natural toning, I watched it with my own eyes. Part of me wants to further this study on Toned coins. And the other part of me, the majority of me says "just leave it to the birds". peck peck peck, Posture up, repeat. I put it out in plain view. Only to show folks what can be done with a little help. I don't even encourage it. The only fix for this coin is to A) leave it the way it is as a reminder to always do my best to store coins correctly. B) dip it and alter the surfaces. C) sell it the way it is and make a buck or two on it. I am going to choose A as it is the right thing to do. Knowing what I did to this coin, if it passes from my hands it will be raw, and most likely dipped with the attached "altered surfaces" it rightly deserves.[/QUOTE]
