So I guess the way the copper darkener works is first you take a photo of the coin,....crank up the brightness in photo editing so that the image is all washed out, ....say to yourself "I am glad my coin doesn't look like that", then finally be happy with the coin the way it is.

It appears that lasvegasvic is a member here and tried to get us to grade that coin for him...

Selling your own slabbed coins.... Shame on you.

I agree with all of you that this is a sad situation. But it's been going on since the first trade between the cavemen. Unscrupulous individuals will prey on the uniformed and continually seek new ways to do this. It's hilarious that Lasvegasvic came here for coin grading advice. Maybe he intends to pass all of his ebay slabbing business through here for "educated" grading. It's a tribute the knowledge of and expertise on this forum. But we're going to have to charge him ... how about 125% of the final value?
