OK, aoot of threads have had folks commenting on ealier mint sets (55 and 56) and then I though wow, here is question:
IF you had a choice between a totally original crusty "dirty coin" and a bright and shiny version of the same coin, which most likely has been dipped, which would you want?
Me, I want the dirt. Others, what say you? ESPECIALLY, Mint sets

when i think crust i think of dirt, grime, and a thick patina of god only
knows what.
can you explain what you mean by crust in more detail please?
More color would be nice
