It's been cleaned to the point of a polish although the pictures don't really tell. I'm thinking an extended stay on my window sill. Any other thoughts on retoning?

Not a bad coin at all ( cant say the same for the Emperor on it though). I still need to nail down one from him . Others know more about the toning than me . If it were mine I would leave it be, ultimately the choice is yours though .

Thanks!
I have a replacement I just picked up at FUN. I'll share that one soon. It has a crescent of magenta and blue toning at top periphery. It's cool.

Nice coin, an extended stay on the window sill should do it

Here is one way to retone...I have a few coins done this way and they look pretty good to my amateur eyes:

Yeah, ebay has small bottles of liver of sulfer patina gel for $9.

I'm not in a hurry though. The sill shall do the trick or an old sulfer album page I have.
