Got Textile??? Well lets see it here....

kryptonitecomics

My newest Morgan purchase and it's one of those coins that you know the minute you see it that you will pay whatever it takes to add it to your collection. It is extremely rare to find a coin with this much textile coverage on one side.....in this case I would say it's nearly 75% and outside of the textile spots the coin is about as neon as you will find with an amazing array of color. So....if you have a textile toned Morgan......please post it here for all to see

Oh and the pictures come via my new Nkon D5000 with a standard lens....need to save up the scratch for the macro lens

When the coin doctors can make a coin like that. we're all in trouble!

Nice example of a bagged toned coin if there ever was one!

Have you seen the guys on ebay using chicken wire to try to duplicate the effect

You cannot seriously believe that the textile pattern cannot be done by the coin doctors. Please, wake up. I can assure you, it is much easier than you imagine. Cheers, RickO

I have seen some lousy jobs and some better jobs of doctors doing textile Ricko,but if someone is proficient in collectimg toners,if you arent sure,DO NOT BUY IT.

I don't know about that, but someday they may become proficient at it. I do know, however, that even a 4-yr old can doctor a coin and make it white.

You got it and that was my reaction so I didn't even put an offer on the coin...I just bought it at the asking price as I didn't know where I could find another like it

Please tell us how it's done or show us. Since the doctors already know, please enlighten us. It would be a great educational piece.

Good advice bestclsr1. I am not about to publish doctoring methods on a public forum. It is enough to know they exist - the 'how' would be important only to those who wish to perform it. As to the snide comment about four year olds, let me say yes, and a four year old can put a coin in a Taco Bell napkin too.. and all of the people who are accelerating the tarnish process are coin doctors, whether they admit it or not. Tarnish is tarnish, and if it occurs naturally, it can be duplicated in an artificial or accelerated manner. Done well, it produces profit - ergo, it will be done. Cheers, RickO

While I don't think all toning is alike...I agree with the rest of what you say. Counterfeiters make cold hard cash because they can and that has to be a lot harder then toning a coin that is made of a reactive medal. With that said, while I have seen some convincing fakes when it comes to standard toning....I have yet to see a textile toned coin faked and would be curious if someone has an image of one? I hear a lot of talk on these boards about what can and can not be done without a shread of evidence.

Yes we know bigfoot and the lochness monster exist....and now artificial textile toned Morgans......what next...UFO's???


You see folks.....on here people don't need proof of anything to try to damage the hobby for some.....they can be as careless and reckless with their statments as they want without having to back anything up.

Example: You can not have a silver coin remain white for a hundred years without dipping it unless it remained in a vacuum.

Now I can't prove this....and it's probably not true but who cares....we aren't on these forums to type the truth right......only state our opinions as facts?

I agree wholeheartedly! But I also believe that people who dip the daylights out of a coin to make it white, are also guilty of doctoring. It is sickening to go to a show and see coins with that unnatural "bleached white" look. I feel a coin should be left in its natural state, and not doctored in any manner. But that is my opinion, and others will feel differently. So, it is important that each of us select only those coins which meet our collecting needs, while simultaneously understanding that others collect coins which may not be what we like.

And regarding the textile toners in this thread, all I can say is that these are some incredible coins!!!
