panzaldi Bedrock of the Community United States 18720 Posts	Posted 10/01/2015 8:24 pm Not fond of the way it toned. Normally you would want it to be symmetric for the best eye appeal. Gotta knock it a point for that. PR64 Report this Post to the Staff
ChildOfTheWheat Pillar of the Community United States 5828 Posts	Posted 10/01/2015 8:40 pm Huh, not bad toning Hard to grade proofs, so no grade for me! Report this Post to the Staff
paralyse Bedrock of the Community United States 12057 Posts	Posted 10/01/2015 10:05 pm I like the toning. It enhances eye appeal on this coin, making you look twice at a coin that would ordinarily not merit any attention. It's a winner.

Cascade Pillar of the Community United States 7390 Posts	Posted 10/02/2015 1:28 pm Thanks thad. It looks a little out of place in my non toned dansco though. A quick question. These are solid alloy correct? Report this Post to the Staff
