Stanley Posted August 3, 2006 Share Posted August 3, 2006 Spider, I must say I'm surprised by this one. You branched out into natural looking coins. That one is a real stunner! When are you planning on dipping it? That depends on who you ask. Same as I don’t like purple hair, body piercing, color coded wiper blades, loud 5000 watt stereos in cars that shake your windows, $2500.00 set of wheels and tires on a $800.00 car, compulsive game boy playing, rude people, smart azz people, etc, etc. But I don’t attempt to impose my beliefs and taste on others. Edited to add: I honestly started to not post this. And if you look back through the treads you will see that I have posted some colorful coins.

Stanley Posted August 3, 2006 Share Posted August 3, 2006 Hey,white morgans can be original...pretty darn ugly but still original... Hayden, That seems to be the normal way for the younger generation to think. And that is one of the reasons we are starting to see so many people doctor coins to mimic toning. While I agree that some colorful coins are extremely attractive I also enjoy a fresh from the mint look so as to be able to see the detail more. That doesn’t mean I will dip my coins to brighten them. I have never done that. And if I did I certainly wouldn’t parade it around to show it off. Just my opinion!
