@JTTC even Numi is your friend, I have nothing against this. You have a statement and you normally have to argue why you thing on this. Common sense,. so please be more explicit. We discuss about technology and the way is applied. Here on the forum we have the duty to give the best answer is possible from all point of view.

Answer to me I agree with xxx person when I put you the real thing scientific documented made me put many questions.

Brush plating in relative thick.


Depends on the person's touch when applying...also the Kennedy in question doesn't look like it was a thin job. It certainly could have been polished afterwards.

Man this coin stirred up a debate. Like the one I had personally when I found it. The 3 boxes of halves this one came from had a lot of nice condition coins, 40 and 90% silver, proofs, gold plated, NIFC both Denver and Philadelphia as well as several 1987 D,P and S. Not many marked coins.

I put it in a flip and put it away anyways just in case.

Me I do not put such coins in flip. Over the time will toning. I use my own slabs which isolate better and eventually I can seal ultrasonic and vacuum.

The strike and field quality lead to a plated business strike. 100% PMD.
