<p>[QUOTE="joecoincollect, post: 2149134, member: 71338"]To state 50% of coins or whatever are AT is pure nonsense. Maybe 50% of the coins you or someone else buys are AT but the general statement is baseless. I collect world coins and many of my early 20th century coins on up are naturally toned. Most are inexpensive coins that no one bothered to clean and then retone, doctor to increase eye appeal or worth, etc. The countless world coins I own and encounter are more likely to be worn down or cleaned than AT, and far more likely to be in their natural state or toning than all else. Stating such a high percentage of AT coins sounds to me like either you are buying primarily US classic coins raw, like large cents or some other popular series. Perhaps this is what you had in mind, but even then the statistic you stated seems to high or just propaganda to try and sell more people on TPGs. This is just my opinion[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
