"Bill Dunkenfield" wrote in message ... "Mr. Jaggers" wrote: "Dennis G. Rears" wrote in message ... I've heard that some dealers (mainly from the major coin advertisers) dip coins. Supposely dipping is different from cleaning coins. Dipping is a non-abrasive, chemical form of cleaning. It is doubtful that many dealers actually engage in this practice, but often buy cleaned/dipped coins at a dime on the dollar and then resell them for 80% of book, as they know such coins will never get into a respected holder. That is not always true. Even a cleaned coin gets by some times. True, I've seen a bunch of them. I hate it when I say never. James 'looks like I picked the wrong week to give up dog biscuits' |

Dipping, if done carefully by an experienced person, can result in an improvement in the eyes of some, but not all.
