<p>[QUOTE="UnderstandsSilver, post: 8606627, member: 142102"]Actually it is fairly simple to do. I’m not talking eggs or cauliflower, or blow torches. I’m not even a chemist and the coin shown above graded Morgan that is burgundy in color I was able to replicate that in my kitchen in a matter of 20 min. With that being said, I have other methods, one which literally takes about 5 minutes, another which takes a few days and then one that can take up to a month. I generally don’t do it to high value coins but I can tell you one thing, to get a credible tone on a silver piece, it must have a nice luster and I’d avoid dipping even if there is already a patina visible to you.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
