Quote: Well circulated coins that have come from rolls can look exactly like those coins. I don't see anything unusual about the color at all.

The 21' looks almost exactly like my 21' which came to me from my grandfather who collected these from circulation. It was definitely not dipped. So that coin looks totally fine to me.
The 26' is slightly suspect I suppose, but personally I no good evidence of a dipping and I don't think it needs to show more grime.
Keep in mind, the second coin doesn't look that heavily circulated and may have just been sitting in a jar for many years after moving in commerce for a few...it would tone somewhat depending on the environment, but it wouldn't collect grime.
I didnt say the coins didnt look fine or good or anything negative like that. You all are confusing my thnking they were dipped with something bad. I dont think them having been dipped is a bad thing. I dip dirty coins all the time. As long as it is done correctly, it is just fine.
