He agrees with you that the coin was most likely dipped before the rainbow toning occurred. I want to thank you for providing the excellent information that you did in this thread.

billjones Pillar of the Community United States 1499 Posts	Posted 05/10/2016 3:30 pm Here is another coin that has re-toned with some color some might find interesting and others might find as well ... When I bought this coin it had pastey white surfaces from dipping, cleaning, and who knows what. After a period of envelope storage it has come to look like this. It's not pretty, so why do I have it in my collection? Here's the reason. At lot of wild things are going on in the date area which made it of interest to me. Report this Post to the Staff
dsfreeworld Pillar of the Community United States 4337 Posts	Posted 05/10/2016 4:29 pm There exists evidence of an 1849/8 overdate in both the A-3/G-101/F-104 and G-103/F-107 with the latter being a proof die which I do not believe this coin to be; it certainly looks more like a business strike. Can you post the reverse of this coin? It's a scarce overdate in the series and a Liberty Seated dime variety hound, such as myself, would pay the premium for it (hint hint...don't go to the grave with it). GREAT coin. Thanks for sharing.

It was fun to do the research to make sure I did not provide any wrong answers. Report this Post to the Staff
