Slider23 Pillar of the Community United States 4469 Posts	Posted 03/12/2022 12:03 am I target original skin coins. If I feel the coin has been dipped, I will most likely pass. I do own some coins that have been dipped because I dipped them. Report this Post to the Staff

I've never heard of this before? Is this true? As a submitter do we authorize them to do this at their discretion? smat Report this Post to the Staff

Coins I can "assume likely" had a dip, but maintain eye appeal and luster are just fine in my book. Coins that are over dipped, lack luster, I would avoid. Report this Post to the Staff
Collects82 Pillar of the Community United States 1316 Posts	Posted 03/16/2022 8:04 pm The big TPGs offer conservation services. One of their methods is "proper dipping". They have a full time department that specializes in the conservation service. Many of the coins are slabbed without a Details designation and we move along in life with the "new" coin. Between PCGS,NGC, and ANACS and their years providing the service, I would venture to say their are a few million dipped coins in slabs without a Details label. As we say, but the coin and not the label. If you like it, buy it. If you have your doubts, look for the the next one. Most of us aren't in the market for unique coins; there is always a next. Make yourself happy. Edited by Collects82 03/16/2022 8:12 pm Report this Post to the Staff
