    Rest assured that PCGS and NGC will bodybag all coins which look like this! No question about it! image

    I don't think they're actually gold toned. I think the seller needs to adjust the white balance on his camera.

    That's what I thought for sure with the second group. Not as sure about the first bunch...looks like they might have a bit o honey color.

    I think they are actually gold toned Russ. And I know how it is done. Anyone can do it in a matter of about fifteen minutes. Ever hear of MS70 cleaner. Put about half a dish full and then throw a silver dollar or a peace dollar into it and let it set for about fifteen or twenty minutes. It will turn the color shown in the picture. It will easily dip off with jewelluster as the surface of the coin is not actually toned at all. It is merely the yellow dye in the ms70 which adheres to the surface of the coin in a smooth thin layer until dipped in jewelluster. They are also easy to detect by someone experienced in grading coins, hence the no grade when sent to PCGS or NGC.

    As for the price...let's just say that I'm still trying to forget, and I'm still a little sore when I sit downimage


    The bidding was fierce, but I'm glad that I bit the bullet on this one!

    XpipedreamR.... I believe I remember when you won that nicely toned Peace$. I don't believe you paid too much. That is if I remember the price correctly. And if it hurts that much to sit down still, just to back up my opinion of the price you paid, I'll bail you out of it for what you paid.
    Please... Save The Stories, Just Answer My Questions, And Tell Me How Much!!!!!
