    What temp is required for that look?

    I am only wondering so I don't accidently make that mistake.

  • kinda a shame that purple color does not happen naturally as I kinda like the color.
  • Looks like some of the photos from NASA's new telescope.

    That looks like it was a pretty decent 90-cc before someone decided to lend mother nature a hand!image

  • Hi,

    I would assume that is artificially toned? Why do that? Nice old coin now really for all intents
    ruined although I am sure there is a market for such pieces.

  • Depends on whether it was blow torched, chemically induced, etc. But I know you can sometimes get AT off a coin. Russ presented an example some time ago that he dipped (I think) and the results looked pretty good.

    Marty...I think that needs Ajax and a Brillo pad more than a dip...or just take a hammer to it to put it out of its misery...
    Criminal waste of a CC dollar....
