<p>[QUOTE=&quot;claw, post: 80107, member: 3699&quot;]Thank you&nbsp; Doug , and everyone else for thier replies.</p><p><br /></p><p>My question was not quite answered .</p><p><br /></p><p>The toning on this proof set was very ugly.I really dont think any one would like this sort of thing.</p><p><br /></p><p>i was wondering ( for instance take my example) If two older proofs were laid side by side, one with little or no toning and the other with lots of toning.Both coins being equal grade. Would one be worth more than the other? Even if the first coin was never dipped.</p><p><br /></p><p>And secondly, would heavy toning affect the particular grade of a proof?</p><p><br /></p><p>One more question. How do you tell if a proof has been dipped?</p><p>Does that mean that any old proof&nbsp; that look like new has been dipped?</p><p>Or is it possible that an old proof&nbsp; was covered up in some way as not to oxidize or tone?</p><p><br /></p><p>Wow thats too many questions from one thread.</p><p><br /></p><p>thanks in advance&nbsp; CLAW[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
