I hear folks talking about "over dipped " look all the time, yet I don't really know what that look is.

Does the obv. have that look ?? Or are we talking "original skin"??


I'm thinking dipped then place in some type of ???????????, that caused the unusal toning.


yea it's only a widget but I'm trying to learn a little something here.

    Appears to have its orig obverse skin, dusky, and typical. The reverse looks orig as well with some not so pretty toning areas from close contact with something. Just a toned unc 21 Morgan. Whether overdipped or like this, don't see much difference in value.
    And by the way, I have overdipped stuff. It's not usually even white but more a sickly looking dullish or flatish "gray-silvery" white.

    Forget about dipped - you've got a Morgan that's been touched by the hand of God! Or didn't you notice the cruciform toning??? Sell that baby on ebay as a relic - you'll make millions!!!

    The coin coin appears to be original/undipped and an end-roll piece to boot - hence the irregular toning pattern on the reverse.image

    No Way!! get outta town!!!


    Mr. Feld............... the end roll toner thing never entered my mind, this is my first then, and on a 21 to boot.


    Itza $30 coin, I paid 40 bucks for that hopefully I can sell for $20 when the time comes.

    till then it's on my fav. list.

    Thanks all,


    been a good day, I learned a little something (I was under the impression the coin was dipped big time) and I got to share

    a great looking coin.


    Stuart..........the picture taking wasn't too hard, deciding which pic to choose out of 25 that I took was the tough part..image
