<p>[QUOTE=&quot;GDJMSP, post: 1079267, member: 112&quot;]I wish PCGS had chosen another name for their little machine. By calling it the &quot;Coin Sniffer&quot; they have confused so many people that it&#039;ll probably be 10 years before folks even begin to understand !</p><p><br /></p><p>The machine doesn&#039;t sniff or smell anything nor can it if detect if acetone, alcohol or other solvents have ever been used to remove foreign substances from the coin. Nor can it detect artificial toning unless some substance (like paint or die) was actually added to the coin. </p><p><br /></p><p>I mean I understand why they called it that, it&#039;s a marketing ploy. Something that PCGS excels at. But boy they sure did a bang up job of making some folks misunderstand what the machine even does ![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
