Ah.. and you guessed I was hiding the darn coin from an auction.
Why do you criticize others for what they feel to do on their thread; assuming it isn't against the rules?
I suggest you mind your own business future wise.
Just my 2c.

Because it is poor form. Perhaps someone else would have had valuable input or perhaps someone else would have learned from it, too.
I guess our new breed of forumites is interested in getting their questions answered for themselves only and then shutting down the conversation. Seems rather selfish to me. Never was like this before.

I've been told I tolerate fools poorly...that may explain things if I have a problem with you. Current ebay items - Nothing at the moment

"If I say something in the woods and my wife isn't there to hear it.....am I still wrong?"
My Washington Quarter Registry set...in progress
But, that wasn't really the case. I don't think anyone should be addressed as Perryhall addressed him.
Especially with crappy assumptions to tick someone else off.
It's a bad case of bitterness perryhall has. To comment on every deleted post, with his "guess" on why it was deleted. Don't tell me that's proper form.
There's two sides to the story. If you want to blame it on posters being fairly new, that's fine with me. Whatever floats your boat.OK.

Like indeetlib said "That coin looks familiar". Looks some different.
The rest makes sense now.
Thanks for putting the pic back.
Now I need to brush up on egg yolk, Coke Classic & Dellers Darkener.

Just my 2c. Like I've said. This will be my final post in this thread. Don't want to ignite any flames.

<< <i>egg yolks contain sulfur which oxidizes copper and other metals, that is the basis for most treatments that are used to retone coins. That is why you use cooked hot egg yolks, crush them up while hot and put the coin or other metal you want to give an aged look to in the container and seal it. this was discussed in another thread my a senior member. >>

That... has got to be one of the strangest thing I've heard anyone say on this forum, and I mean that it nicest way.
the obverse of the first coin is especially indicative of crude AT work.

Using egg Yolk to AT coins.....youtube video
Not sure if it works on other metals other than silver.

Erik
example but the pic above looks best as far as all the pics you posted of this coin.
A good pic will tell most of the story for the majority of those here on the forum. And that's the best so far.
It may look a bit more silver than copper but it's still the best.
Might try experimenting with your lighting, John.
I find incandescents work best on copper but are horrible on silver.

Love the accent and cracked up at the "Back in a Sec" comment!
The name is LEE!
I would and wouldn't worry about the complaints.
they are just saying listen more in a not so good way.
I used to post a lot more when I came on and some accused me of doing it simply to get a higher post count and some false sense of credibility.
As to the digging holes type coments... I think they may be referring to the sulfur envelope vs. eggs post. immersing it in egg is a faster and harsher chemical soup process than an out gassing old envelope. There is a difference.
